LIGA SUPER: JDT 2 - ATM 1
Johor DT took full advantage of playing in front of their home fans by beating struggling ATM 2-1 in Larkin on saturday. The home side displayed a good performance with new signings Patricio "Patito" Rodriguez and Alhaji Kamara making debuts.
The Gladiators stunned the host with an opening goal in the 23rd minute. Jerry Nelson Palacious diverted an attempt by former JDT star Norshahrul Idlan Talaha. The goal could not kill the spirit of the Southern Tigers. Bojan Hodak boys were quick to react and grabbed the equalizer through Mohd Amri Yahya nine minutes later.
JDT started to take control, they launched series of attacks into the visitors area but ATM held on. However, their efforts were paid-off in the 58th minute when Patito sent a perfect pass to Safiq Rahim. The national captain brilliantly curled the ball to beat ATM's goal keeper.
JDT kept the lead until full time. The win lifted JDT to share the same points with four other teams and one point behind Super League leader, PDRM.
