PETALING JAYA: Hector Bidoglio has reminded his players that wearing the red and blue jersey of Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) comes with great responsibility.
The Venezuelan coach said that the badge on their shirts had inspired them to win everything on the domestic stage.
And they are now just a step away from making more history - completing a third straight quadruple by winning the Malaysia Cup final against Pahang tonight.
“Wearing the jersey is the greatest motivation. It makes the players give their 100 per cent every time,’’ said Bidoglio.
“JDT have been great domestically and even in the region. Now we have another 90 minutes or maybe even more to complete our last mission this season.’’
Bidoglio, though, is aware of the challenge Pahang can provide but he wants to focus more on what his players can do in the final.
“This will be a difficult game. Pahang are a good side and I’ve analysed them and how they play, but I am more concerned about my players - I want them to be at their best.’’
