Pan Gon fumes over poor teamwork ahead of Penang match
KUALA LUMPUR: Selangor head coach Kim Pan Gon has demanded that his charges back their ambition with hard work and disciplined tactical execution when they host Penang at the MBPJ Stadium on Saturday.
Selangor coach Kim Pan Gon expressed disappointment over his team's poor performance and communication during their midweek FA Cup quarter-final match against Star City. Pan Gon criticized the disconnect between the front and back lines, noting that some attackers failed to track back to support the defense, leading to tough five-versus-five situations for their defenders.
Despite their recent league dominance, Pan Gon emphasized that hard work and disciplined tactical execution are crucial when they host Penang at the MBPJ Stadium on Saturday. KL City coach Dollah Salleh, whose team will also be facing a crucial match against Melaka, stressed that the squad will be bolstered for the trip, with most injured players expected to play.
In other matches, Kelantan Red Warriors and Star City will clash in a bottom-of-the-table battle, while Negri Sembilan and Sabah aim to improve their form in a home game. On Sunday, Kuching City faces DPMM, and league leaders Johor Darul Ta zim will test their perfect record against Terengganu in a highly anticipated encounter.
