SELANGOR HELD BY PKNS

Malaysia Super League: Selangor 0 - PKNS 0 As Selangor marched on the Stadium Shah Alam as favourite, the PKNS team was so eager to pull a surprise over the state team. From the kick-off, PKNS didn't reflect any fear despite facing a high profile team like Selangor. Both team had a fair share of possessions although lacked of goal attempts. The second-half sees PKNS geared-up for a more offensive approach with Patrick Ronaldinho continuous pressure on Selangor's goal. Amri Yahyah wasn't as great as his tricks and skills on the field, just because he couldn't find the net. PKNS pint-sized midfielder Nazrin Syamsyul Bahri played another good game.

PRESSURE ON FANDI AS JDT HELD BY FELDA

Malaysia Super League: Felda 0 - JDT 0 The Super League encounter between Felda United and Johor Darul Takzim ended in a goalless draw at the Petaling Jaya Stadium . Moneybags Johor Darul Takzim (JDT) dubbed the dream team, are the hot favourites to claim top honours in the Super League this season. But the multi-million ringgit assembled side have been far from impressive. JDT have now drawn four times in eight matches. The result did not go down well with Singapore football legend Fandi Ahmad , who slammed the team for not getting their act right. Meanwhile, Felda were more dangerous inside Darul Takzim half, though poor finishing saw them unable to breach the net as well. Felda United coach K. Devan said his team should have won based on the chances that they had created. "My players played well according to our game plan. We were unlucky not to win the match," said Devan.
