EVEN though it was a foreign player who came out with the highest number of goals in the Malaysia Hockey League (MHL), local strikers have been a force to be reckoned with too – something that should put a smile on the face of national coach S. Arul Selvaraj.

In the league that concluded on Feb 21, Terengganu’s South Korean defender Jang Jong-hyun, 36, ended the league with a whopping 23 goals from 17 matches.
