Darby Comes Out In Support Of Sacked Colleague
Steve Darby has slammed Terengganu's sacking of coach Mat Zan Mat Aris saying he 'was amazed'. The team from the north east of Malaysia sit third in the Super League but were recently dumped out of the FA Cup by Premier League side Sime Darby.
'The results at Terranganu have been excellent, ' says Steve talking to Jakarta Casual, ' last year they won the FA Cup, runners up in league and Malaysia Cup and this year reached semi final of FA Cup and in the top 3 of the M league! Plus reaching the knockout stage of the AFC Cup, which many teams on bigger budgets have failed to do.'
Recalling a number of battles against Mat Zan over the years, Steve recalls 'every team he turns out is organised and hard working.'
As I type this Terengganu are losing 2-1 to Kitchee in Hong Kong on the final group stage game of the AFC Cup.
