The lack of fans present at Larkin yesterday for the Malaysia Cup opener did not throw a spanner in the works for reigning Super League champions JDT as goals from Diogo Luis Santo (16', 85') and Safawi Rasid (65') gave them all three points to share top spot with Terengganu FC after the end of Match Day 1.
Two headers from Diogo and the penalty from Safawi showed that JDT meant business in this competition in front of only 5,860 fans in attendance, although a late Zarko Korac goal in stoppage denied the home side the chance to keep a clean sheet.
