Figueroa open to rotation in final 3 matches as JDT chase invincibility

The newly crowned 2019 Malaysia Super League champions continues their high level of performance in the season with a workmanlike 3-0 win over Perak in Ipoh which gives them their 15th win of the season but more importantly, keeps them unbeaten.

Only three matches remained and this away game to Perak was supposedly the toughest of the remaining fixures, so there's a very good chance now that Johor Darul Ta'zim will be able to repeat their 2016 success of finishing the entire league season without a single defeat.

Leandro Velazquez (37', 48') scored on either side of half time to give the visitors a comfortable 2-0 lead before substitute Akhyar Rashid capped off another perfect JDT result with the third in the third minute of stoppage time towards the end of the second half.
