Arif’s solid showing has Kawasaki coach singing praises


PETALING JAYA: Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) winger Arif Aiman Hanapi did not score goals or provided any assists against Kawasaki Frontale in the AFC Champions League but still got the attention of the opposition coach.

Toru Oniki was full of praise for the 21-year-old winger who caused problems on the left flank, to the extent that the Japanese club had to place two defenders to mark him.
