The visiting player, Muhd Danial Amer Norhisham, scored the only goal from the outside the penalty box in the 70th minute.

The match was supposed to be in favour of the hosts as the homesters got seven chances at goal but failed to convert it.

“It was a bit disappointing that we’ve failed to achieve full points in the first match against Felda United F.C,” said Sarawak B coach S.Veloo.

According S.Veloo, the most frustrating moment was when the players failed to score despite the numerous of opportunities.

S.Veloo said the first half only already saw seven chances which failed to produce any goal.
