TFC had one foot in the quarterfinals of the 2019 Malaysia Cup even before a ball has been kicked in the final Group A matches on Tuesday night as their huge goal difference was almost going to make it difficult for Negeri Sembilan to overtake them in the final reckoning.
But Nafuzi Zain's boys made sure of their spot in the next phase of the competition with a solid 2-0 win over PKNS FC at Shah Alam Stadium. Goals from Sanjar Shaakhmedov (4') and Tchetche Kipre (9') ended the match as a contest and had Nafuzi looking to replicate what his predecessor had achieved in the same competition last year.
