Skuad negara ke separuh akhir


SKUAD futsal negara meraikan kejayaan mara ke separuh akhir selepas menewaskan Kemboja semalam.


MALAYSIA melangkah bergaya ke separuh akhir setelah membelasah Kemboja 13-1 pada aksi kedua Pusingan Kelayakan ASEAN Kejuaraan Futsal Asia 2010 di Jakarta, Indonesia petang semalam.
Penyerang muda berusia 21 tahun dari Selangor, Qaiser He- shaam Abdul Kadir menyumbat empat gol, sementara Ruzaley Abd. Aziz pula meledak tiga gol.

Baki enam gol Malaysia dijaringkan Khairul Rizuan Harif Pagilah (2), Fairuz Mohd. Noor (2), Khairul Effendy Bahrin dan Fadzil Karnim.

Kemenangan kedua selepas menewaskan Filipina 4-1 kelmarin menjadikan aksi terakhir bertemu Vietnam petang ini sebagai penentuan untuk muncul juara Kumpulan B atau naib juara.


Pada aksi semalam, skuad negara menerima tekanan awal sepanjang separuh masa pertama apabila penyokong tempatan melakukan provokasi selain bersorak padu menyokong pasukan Kemboja.

Namun, mental pemain Malaysia tetap kuat apabila mereka berjaya mendahului 4-0 pada babak pertama menerusi jaringan Qaiser seawal minit kedua dan ke-12 serta ledakan Ruzaley pada minit ke-9 dan ke-17.
Pada babak kedua, Malaysia terus garang untuk menambah sembilan lagi gol melalui Khairul Effendy (24), Khairul Rizuan (25 dan 26), Ruzaley (30), Qaiser (30 dan 31), Fairuz (35 dan 38) serta Fadzil (39).

Namun, gawang Malaysia yang dikawal Firdaus Razali bocor sekali pada minit ke-29 hasil jaringan penyerang lawan, Ouk Sereyratanak.

“Kita sudah mencapai sasaran awal mara ke separuh akhir tetapi kita masih mempunyai misi utama untuk muncul tiga pasu- kan terbaik, sekali gus layak ke pusingan akhir di Uzbekistan.

“Saya harap rakyat dan pela- jar Malaysia di sekitar Jakarta dapat hadir memberi sokongan menjelang aksi separuh akhir Selasa ini (esok),” kata pengurus pasukan, Datuk Hamidin Mohd. Amin ketika ditemui selepas perlawanan.

Jurulatih negara, Maizal Hairi Marzuki pula berkata: “Aksi bertemu Vietnam (hari ini) adalah ujian sebenar. Harap semua pemain kekalkan disiplin diri supaya kita dapat kekalkan rentak kemenangan.”

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...

Badminton: Fans rooting for all-Malaysian semis

Reports: RAJES PAUL KUALA LUMPUR: The home fans will be rooting for an all-Malaysian men’s singles semi-final between Lee Chong Wei and Liew Daren. But Chong Wei is more fancied to advance than Daren in quarter-final matches against Indonesian Simon Santoso and Dane Peter Gade-Christensen respectively at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil today. Yesterday, Chong Wei defeated Vietnamese Nguyen Tien Minh 21-9, 18-21, 21-7 in a second-round match that saw the world number one struggling to adapt to the draught in the stadium in the second game. And Daren continued a fairy tale run in his home Open, blowing away a toothless Hsueh Hsuan-yi of Taiwan 21-14, 21-12. Although Choong Wei had to slog for the win over Tien Minh, the top seed and defending champion felt that he was playing better by the day. “I got off to a good start but found it hard to cope with the draught. I tried to catch up after losing my momentum but that did not happen and I decided to conserve energy for ...

Rajagobal Let Off The Hook

PETALING JAYA, April 24 (Bernama) -- National head coach Datuk K. Rajagobal was let off the hook by the Football Association of Malaysia's (FAM) Disciplinary Committee after finding no evidence that he had violated FAM's Article 88, as claimed. FAM Disciplinary Committee chairman Datuk Taufik Abdul Razak said the committee had decided not to charge Rajagobal after carefully analysing the video of the post-match press conference by the 56-year-old coach. "After listening to the recording of the post-match press conference, we decided to drop the charge against Rajagopal as he did not make such a statement. "Maybe his (Rajagobal) assessment and comments of the match was misconstrued by the media. There was no mention of the FAM policy throughout his comments," said Taufik after emerging from a three-hour Disciplinary Committee meeting at Wisma FAM in Kelana Jaya, here, Wednesday. Rajagobal who does not mince his words when asked to com...
