Men’s futsal in semis after impressive win as beach volleyball players continue fighting form

KUALA LUMPUR: Sarawak stormed into the semi-finals of the men’s futsal competition at the National Sports Stadium (Panasonic) yesterday with an impressive 5-2 win over Perlis.

Striker Awangku Mohd Fazzrin Awang Mortadza scored two goals with one each from Ronald Dennis, Mohd Nur Arsyad Tamit and Mohd Izzuddin Jahidin.

Perlis’ goals were scored by Muhammad Faizzuddin Mad Abas.

An elated team manager Poasa Majais praised the players for their fine performance.

“I’m very happy with the today’s result that gives us a berth in the last four. The players’ strong determination was key in our victory,” he said after the game.

Not knowing who their next opponents will be as the other quarter-finals were still being played late yesterday, Poasa, nonetheless, hoped the players could keep up their good form in today’s semi-final.

“We are not thinking of our semi-final opponents right now but what the players need to do is to maintain their tempo, focus on their next game and not to make too many mistakes,” he added.
