  "account": "Johor Darul Ta zim (JDT) is set to continue their dominant run on Friday as they face Brunei's DPMM at the Sultan Ibrahim Stadium in Iskandar Puteri for their fifth consecutive home match. The match comes after the Malaysian Football League (MFL) revised the Super League schedule due to a accumulation of haze issues in Sarawak and Brunei.\n\nThe Southern Tigers have been in excellent form recently, scoring 19 goals without reply in their last three games. JDT coach Xisco Munoz cautioned against complacency, emphasizing the importance of defensive steel and tactical discipline over goal tallies. Munoz stated that clean sheets are the most crucial aspect of their strategy, and the team must show commitment both offensively and defensively. He highlighted that players must manage their minutes carefully, as football requires both offensive and defensive prowess while also acknowledging the need for rest and recovery.\n\nOn the same day, Kelantan Red Warrior will host KL City at the Sultan Muhammad IV Stadium in Kota Baru. The City Boys have recently secured their first victory of the season against DPMM. However, coach Datuk Dollah Salleh remains humble, noting that the win was essential for maintaining player morale after facing numerous off-field challenges during the preparations.",
