Dollah urges attacking fix despite KL City reaching FA Cup last eight

KL City have advanced to the FA Cup quarter-finals after a 0-0 draw against Perak in the second leg, securing their place 1-0 on aggregate. Coach Datuk Dollah Salleh admitted that there is still significant room for improvement, particularly in attack. Dollah noted that his team's performance did not meet expectations compared to their previous match against Kelantan Red Warrior.

He described the team's performance as falling short of what was hoped for. Despite the draw, the City Boys progressed to the quarter-finals. However, Dollah identified the attack as the most glaring weakness, stating that the team remains overly reliant on Paulo Josue to score goals. He observed that during the match against Kelantan, the team played much better, indicating that currently, the attack seems to depend heavily on Paulo.

Dollah emphasized that every player should contribute to scoring, not just one individual. He highlighted that even the goalkeeper should strive to score, and relying solely on one player makes it challenging. The coach acknowledged that the team is still working on finding their rhythm in attack to score goals while minimizing missed opportunities.
