Safiq confident that JDT will still go through despite letting in two away goals

JDT's Safiq Rahim wants his team to take encouragement from Wednesday's win despite not being on their best

Safiq Rahim popped up with an important goal, a minute before half time as his headed goal made the score 2-2 for Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) going into half time against Ceres-Negros FC in AFC Cup action on Wednesday night.

Had the midfielder not provide the pivotal goal, JDT could have gone into the break feeling despondent given how they gave two goals away after initially taking the lead. When it came, it gave fresh impetus for JDT to come out after half time more confident to find the winner.
