Devastating news: PJ City’s B. Tinagaran (right) felt pain on his thigh during a friendly match between PJ City and the national Under-22 team. The pain later turned out to be stage four bone cancer. He is currently undergoing chemotherapy in Penang.
B. TINAGARAN had it all going for him. A pioneer with the MIFA football team since 2014, the centreback helped the team win two M3 League titles (2013 and 2016).
When the team were rebadged as Petaling Jaya City, he was right in the middle of the fray, as the Phoenix finished runners-up in the 2018 Premier League to win promotion to the Super League.
