The victory Kedah Darul Aman FC (KDA FC) had over Kelantan United FC (KUFC) yesterday is crucial to the team’s quest for the top spot in this season’s Super League. KDA FC assistant head coach Victor Andrag said the 3-2 win at KUFC’s ground uplifted the team spirit after two consecutive defeats in the previous actions. ‘This victory boosts the team’s morale after the previous defeats, which somewhat affected the players’ momentum. ‘With these three points, we’ll definitely continue to close the gap with the teams at the top of the league,’ he told reporters after the match at the Sultan Muhammad IV Stadium here. After four matches, KDA FC hold the fourth spot in the Super League standings with four points from one win, one draw and two losses, while KUFC remain at the bottom with just one point. Victor said his players need to be consistent and keep their momentum going in the next match in an effort to clinch the top spot. Meanwhile, KUFC head coach Tomas Trucha said that despite their home defeat, he did not entirely place the blame on the defensive line. ‘I don’t blame my defenders because our attacking players also need to improve and play better in the next game. ‘We have a good opportunity to score more goals, but our strikers failed to take advantage, and we lost the game,’ he said.
