After a nightmare first leg in their FA Cup semi-final tie against Pahang, Perak goalkeeper Hafizul Hakim Khairul Nizam bounced back from the disappointment in the return fixture, keeping a clean sheet to help his side record a 4-3 win on aggregate, and to reach the final.
In the first leg in Kuantan, the Malaysia custodian let in a free kick taken from the opposition's half by Herold Goulon, to allow the match to finish 3-1, further attracting criticism for his average form this season.
But in the home fixture on Saturday, the Bos Gaurus' defence put in a solid shift against a misfiring Pahang, while Hafizul himself was a steadier pair of hands in between the sticks, and they performed a stunnning comeback to win the match 3-0.
