Since snapping a two-match losing run in late March, Terengganu FC have been in very good form of late, winning five of their last six matches. The loss away to Kedah was the only blip in their recent run and it could have easily been a second defeat if not for Irfan Bakti's intervention.
Against the plucky PJ City FC at Petaling Jaya Munincipal Council Stadium, Terengganu had gone into half time trailing to a Rajesh Perumal goal in the 36th minute after some good hold up play by the experienced Safee Sali. Struggling to cope with the directness of PJ City's play, Irfan knew things could not continue in the second half.
