Red Giants brace for Melaka aerial raids
PETALING JAYA: Head coach Kim Pan Gon has demanded an improvement from the Selangor defence when the Red Giants return to their fortress at the MBPJ Stadium against Melaka tomorrow.
In the upcoming Super League match, Selangor's head coach Kim Pan Gon has emphasized the need for improvement in the team's defence. The Red Giants have had a strong start to the season, securing victories over Kelantan and Terengganu, and currently enjoying a 7-goal haul in away matches. However, Selangor was held to a 2-2 draw by Sabah in the FA Cup round of 16 first-leg tie, with Pan Gon citing fatigue and defensive errors as areas for swift improvement.
The coach emphasized the necessity of rectifying these issues before the next match to be eligible for the final. Selangor's offensive firepower, particularly Brazilian striker Chrigor Moraes, who has netted four goals across all competitions, remains a significant threat. Melaka, who suffered a heartbreaking 1-0 defeat to Penang in their FA Cup first-leg tie at Hang Jebat Stadium, is expected to bring a direct and physical style to the MBPJ Stadium.
