PETALING JAYA: Terengganu showed that their victory over Central Coast Mariners during the opening action in Group G of the AFC Cup in Kuala Terengganu last September was not a fluke after they managed to hold the Australian club to a 1-1 draw in Gosford.

Engku Nur Shakir’s beautiful header in the 53rd minute looked like it was enough to give Tomislav Steinbruckner’s squad three points before Miguel Di Pizio’s equaliser three minutes before the end erased the advantage.
