Cheng Hoe hails strong-minded Giants in comeback win


PETALING JAYA: Selangor coach Tan Cheng Hoe cited the commitment and strong mentality of his players as the key to their 3-1 victory over Negri Sembilan in their FA Cup quarter-final at the Tuanku Abdul Rahman Stadium in Paroi on Saturday.

Selangor are thus through to the last four where they will take on Johor Darul Ta’zim or Penang. Safuwan Baharudin fired Negri ahead in the very first minute but Selangor equalised through Mukhairi Ajmal Mahadi two minutes later.
