Selangor’s Al-Arab given the boot after kicking ref


PETALING JAYA: Footballer Yazan Al-Arab has paid a heavy price for kicking a match referee in frustration on Sept 24 as Selangor have terminated the defender’s contract immediately.

The incident occurred after the final whistle of the match between the Red Giants and Terengganu in the second leg of the Malaysia Cup quarter-finals at the Petaling Jaya Stadium which ended in a 1-1 draw two weeks ago.
