Selangor exacted revenge over Kelantan at the Shah Alam Stadium last night to become the first team to reach the Malaysia Cup quarter-finals.

They won the Group A match 4-1 with national player Indra Putra Mahayuddin scoring a brace in the 16th and 20th minutes and skipper Mohd Shukor Adan and Elie Aiboy going on target in the 40th and 72nd minutes. Kelantan scored their solitary goal through Mohd Badri Radzi in the 90th minute.

To the fore: Selangor’s Elie Aiboy scored the last goal in Selangor’s 4-1 win over Kelantan at the Shah Alam Stadium Tuesday night.

Kelantan's early fire fizzled out and they were blunt in attack after having parted ways with their prolific goal-getter, Senegalese Mouhamadou Moustapha, who had scored 32 goals in the 33 matches for them this season.

The win for the Red Giants, who were beaten 2-5 by Kelantan in the first round, put them in an unassailable position for a top two finish in the group.

They are on 19 points with two matches remaining against Terengganu at home on Friday and against Malacca away on Aug 2.
