AFTER a maze of qualifiers in the group stage, 16 teams went into the
National Football Association Brunei Darussalam (NFABD) Red Bull
Championship 2012 draw yesterday with heavyweights MS PDB and last years
Red Bull Futsal Championship finalist Red Butterfly facing a difficult
time missing out being seeded.
Held at the main office of the NFABD in Berakas, the draw revealed the first game of the second round between the leader of the Group F, AH United and the runner-up of Group A, Arbisyam FC on August 26 at the Multipurpose Hall of the Hassanal Bolkiah Sports Complex in Berakas.

With the absence of the last year's champions QAF FC, MS ABDB, Shah United, Kota Junior and this year's surprise package LLRC FT will take the challenge to win the tournament this time around.
Debutant LRRC FT are enjoying their time in the tournament after recording four wins out of four games and will play against Pega Star of Group C in the second round.
"We will try our best to win the tournament. This is our first time competing in the national futsal tournament. I am happy with their performance so far.
"We do not know much about Pega Star as this is only our first time in the tournament, but we will do our best," said Ahmad Sazarin, the manager of the LLRC FT.
Meanwhile, FC Phosphor manager Tengku Syed Herdiman Tengku Syed Abdul Rahman believes that his team be able to create history in the tournament as they prepare to take on Syah Kampong on September 18 at the Multipurpose Hall of the Hassanal Bolkiah Sports Complex in Berakas.
"I am satisfied with the draw lots. Syah Kampong is a good team and I never underestimate them. We have met before in the tournament and they have a lot of talented players. But we have prepared very well for this tournament," said Tengku Syed Herdiman.
"If we manage to beat Syah Kampong in the second round, we will go up against MS ABDB or Rizfiz FT. My boys have waited a long time for this chance to beat the best futsal team in the country. I believe that they will be able to win the tournament and create history for the club," he added.
The other matches will see Kelab Youth Futsal 2015 pits against Shah United; Indera SC will entertain Street United; PHJ FT will play Fuzee United; Kota Junior go up against Stone Villa, and MS ABDB will face Rizfiz in the second round of the tournament.
