Malaysia should be happy with Shahrel Fikri, says Ifedayo of Malaysia Super League golden boot rival

Playing against the struggling Felda United in their final Malaysia Super League matchday has not only allowed Selangor to record another commanding victory, it also afforded the Red Giants' striker Ifedayo Olusegun the opportunity to top the league goal-scoring chart.

Going into round 11, the chart had been led by Perak's Shahrel Fikri who had 10 goals, while Ifedayo had been on nine. Against the Fighters, the Nigerian netted a hattrick to help his team win 6-1, to take his tally to 12, while Perak are scheduled to host second-placed Kedah on Sunday in a must-win match, on a night when claiming the golden boot is almost certainly not Shahrel's top priority.
