WASTEFUL Indera SC were made to settle for a point after drawing 3-3 against Jerudong FC in a thrilling DST Super League encounter last night.

Jerudong looked on their way to claim all three points from the encounter before substitute Naziruddin Hj Ismail struck late into stoppage time to see both sides share the spoils.

Md Asnawi Syazni Abd Aziz had given Jerudong the lead in the 11th minute but it was shortlived with Md Aimmil Rahman Ramlee equalising just two minutes later.

Indera then went in front for the first time four minutes before the halftime whistle courtesy of Asri Hj Aspar at the Balapan Track and Field of the Hassanal Bolkiah National Sports Complex in Berakas.

Indera control much of the second half but couldn’t find a way past Md Iswandy Hj Md Azmi in between the Jerudong sticks.

They came close in the 66th minute but Naziruddin, who had only come on for two minutes, was denied by the post.

Hazwan Hamzah’s header off a corner was goal bound but was cleared off the line by a Jerudong player four minutes later.

Another chance went begging in the 74th minute after Asri somehow put the ball over from point blank range.

Instead, Jerudong levelled off a superb counterattack in the 82nd minute.

Indera’s freekick from the edge of the area came off the wall and was cleared upwards to skipper Atifudin @ Amir Mamduh Momin.

He then put the ball to his left before Hidayatur Rahim Aliuddin held off his defender to slot it home.

Jerudong went in front three minutes later after a freekick from the right was headed to the far post.

It dropped nicely for Yansen Efendi, who took a side step before firing it past Indera custodian Md Ahsanuddin Hj Md Dani.

Indera got the equaliser when Jerudong were a man down with Atifudin getting treatment at the sidelines.

A ball from the left by Safwan Amaluddin Sabli was not cleared properly and only got to as far as Naziruddin to fire home from inside the area.

Indera almost snatched it seconds from the end but Md Aimmil put his effort wide to see both teams take a point from the matchup.

Meanwhile, Kasuka FC moved to the summit of the 11-team standings after a 3-1 win over Wijaya FC at the Berakas Sports Complex.

Md Nazri Hj Hassan put Kasuka in front in the 18th minute but was cancelled out by Pg Anaqi Sufi Pg Hj Omar Baki in first half stoppage.

Former DPMM FC defender Abd Aziz Tamit put Kasuka back in the driving seat in the 66th minute before Md Hafis Mahari completed the win late on.

The competition continues today with Najip I-Team taking on Tabuan Muda A at the Berakas Sports Complex at 8.15pm.

JERUDONG FC recorded a rare win in the Brunei DST Super League after edging Wijaya FC 2-1 at the Berakas Sports Complex last night.

Wijaya suffered their first defeat of the season as the Jerudong club dented their hopes of wrestling the crown away from the obvious title contenders in MS ABDB and Indera SC.

Mohd Arif bin Ali Rahman opened the scoring with an exquisite free-kick on the stroke of half time before Agus Haryono drew Wijaya level in the 48th minute.

Mohd Asnawi Syazni bin Abdul Aziz scored the winner for Jerudong in the hour mark.

Jerudong FC team manager Haji Mohd Jalaluddin bin Haji Mohd Ghazali was pleased with his players after getting the better of one of the league’s stronger teams.

“It is every manager’s hope to win a game. Jerudong won tonight and I’m grateful that all players were able to do what they were instructed,” said Jalaluddin in a post-match interview.

“Wijaya are a strong team and if I’m not mistaken they were third last season.”

Jalaluddin hoped that his charges would continue with their hard work in training.

“We play football as a team. Hopefully, we continue to do so,” he added.

Jerudong finished at the bottom of the DST Super League last year with only one win to their name while Wijaya sealed a top three finish.

Elsewhere, first-half strikes from Abdul Azizi Ali Rahman and Budiman Jumat helped reigning holders MS ABDB to a 2-0 win over Lun Bawang at the Batu Apoi Sports Complex in the Temburong District.
