KUCHING: Kuching City FC (KCFC) have advanced to the second round of the FA Cup.

However, Irfan Bakti Abu Salim’s charges were made to work hard before beating UiTM FC 2-0 at Stadium Negri, Petra Jaya here on Thursday.

Shafizi Iqmal Md Khirudin and Mohamad Alif Hassan scored goals in the 55th and 62nd minute respectively.

“It was a pretty good start for us. The win secured our place in the second round. Congratulations to the players,” said Irfan after the match.

He admitted that there were concerns at first, considering it was KCFC’s first time meeting UiTM FC. “I’m pleased that the result went our way.”

“There were five to six attempts made by us that did not meet the target. If not, we could have won with a bigger margin,” he added.
