Muara Vella on course to defend President Cup title


Monday, June 17, 2013

MUARA Vella FC remain on course to defend their DST National Veteran Football President's Cup title after cruising to a 6-3 victory over the Royal Brunei Police Forces Sports Council (MS PDB) in yesterday's quarter-finals.

Defending champions Muara Vella will now face Al-Idrus in the semi-final after the latter defeated Wasabi FC 2-0 on Friday.

Contested at the Raja Isteri Pengiran Anak Saleha (RIPAS) Secondary School in Tutong, Rosli Ahad and Saiful Bahrin Hj Hamid both bagged a brace in the win.

Kifli Sulaiman and Chua Kim Kok also got their name on the scoresheet with a goal apiece.

Meanwhile, Noradli Sahat found the net once for MS PDB, while Mohd Azlan Abdullah score a brace in the defeat.

In the other quarter-finals at the Awang Semaun Secondary School in Lumapas, Hj Norazmie PDP Hj Abd Razak's brace helped last year's runners-up Semaun Veteran beat Besa FC 4-2.

Azamanudin Hj Gillen and Aidei Awang also got on the scoresheet for Semaun. That result means Semaun will now meet XN (Ex-National) Team in the semi-final.

XN Team defeated Jerudong FC 1-0 at the Pehin Datu Seri Maharaja Mentiri Secondary School on Friday, with Radiman Abdul Rahman scoring the only goal for XN Team.

Muara Vella made it a double last year by clinching both the President's Cup and FA Cup, beating Semaun in both instances.

Muara Vella overcame Semaun Veteran 3-2 in the final of the President's Cup before going on to defeat the same opponents 4-3 in a dramatic penalty shootout to lift the FA Cup as well.
