PETALING JAYA: Terengganu midfielder and captain Habib Haroon produced a domineering performance in midfield against A-League giants Central Coast Mariners but knew it would have been perfect if he had scored a goal.

In the opening Group G encounter of the AFC Cup, the player from Bahrain helped the Turtles shock the Australian club 1-0 at the Sultan Mizan Stadium in Gong Badak on Wednesday.
