Ashfaq's Brace Put PDRM Through

Premier League champions, the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM) became the first side to book their place in the 2014 Malaysia Cup competition quarter-finals after posting a 2-1 win over the T-Team Titans.

Maldives striker, Ali Ashfaq scored a brace to help his side overcoming a stiff resistance from a side they thrashed 4-1 on Saturday. 

Ali opened the scoring in this Group D match from the penalty spot after the referee had judged Ahmed Ezrie had been fouled inside the box. Despite his best attempt, The Titans goalkeeper, Mohamad Shahril Sa'ari could not prevent the ball from going past him.

The home side pressed hard for the equaliser but the woodwork conspired against them when at least three attempts made by their players hit the frame of the goal before bouncing out to safety.

Seven minutes into the second half, The Titans striker, Jimmy Mulisa rose the highest to head the ball past the stranded Azizon Kadir who could only watch the ball rolled into his goal.

PDRM scored their winner when a mistake by defender, Mohamad Nuraliff allowed Ali to have a clear run on goal. He easily sidestepped Shahril before slotting the ball home before celebrating his goal with a sommersault.

In another Group D match, Sime Darby FC came back from behind to put a huge dent on Selangor ambition to win the competition for the 33rd time in their history.

The Red Giants gave their supporters something to cheer after the hour mark when Hazwan Bakri found the back of the net.

However, with just fifteen minutes remaining on the clock, Sime Darby equalised through Fahrulrazi Kamarudin. Then seven minutes from time, Mateo Roskam beat Farizal Marlias to earn his side a valuable win in Shah Alam.

In Group B, Terengganu came away with a positive result against Perak in Ipoh after forcing The Bos Gaurus to share the spoils in a 1-1 draw. 

Ahmad Nordin Alias's equaliser two minutes from time denied the home side all three points after they have been leading since the 48th minute when Terengganu defender, Vincent Bikana inadvertly turned the ball past his goalkeeper as he tried to intercept a Mario Tulio low ball into the box.

In Alor Setar, Kedah completed the double over Sarawak in this competition when they scored another injury time goal to win this hot encounter 2-1.

The Crocs shocked the home fans when S.Chanturu opened the scoring in the 21st minute. However, Billy Mehmet levelled things up six minutes after the interval. When the two sides seemed destined to share the points, Syazwan Tajudin scored the winner two minutes into added time.
