Pan Gon demands MFL probe into touchline clash with Nazmi
KUALA LUMPUR: Selangor coach Kim Pan Gon refused to discuss his side’s 2-0 defeat to Kuching City in the second leg of the FA Cup semi-final, instead calling for a Malaysian Football League (MFL) investigation into an incident involving midfielder Nazmi Faiz Mansor.
Selangor coach Kim Pan Gon demanded that the Malaysian Football League (MFL) investigate an incident involving Kuching City midfielder Nazmi Faiz Mansor following their FA Cup semi-final defeat. The confrontation occurred near the touchline, with both teams' dugouts involved, resulting in red cards for Selangor's playmaker Eduardo Sosa and fitness coach Joel Josep Dones Charte.
Pan Gon criticized Nazmi for coming close to him and attacking his position during the match, stating that his players and staff felt threatened by Nazmi's actions. He emphasized that fair play, sportsmanship, and respect for opponents are essential, regardless of the match outcome. Kuching coach Aidil Sharin Sahak disagreed with Pan Gon's assessment, suggesting that Pan Gon should consider his own team's disciplinary record during the match.
