Protap not disheartened by 5-1 thumping to UKM

M3 side Protap FC will not be discouraged by their 5-1 defeat to Premier League club UKM FC in their round two FA Cup tie on Tuesday.

Even with only two foreign players available for the encounter, the hosts still proved too strong for their all-local amateur opponents; Mateo Roskam scored a hat-trick while Milad Zeneyedpour bagged a brace in the encounter. The visitors' only goal of the match was scored by Hariz Saim in the 49th minute.

Speaking to the press after the match that was held at the UKM Stadium, head coach Shahidan Rusly remarked that the only way to go is up for his charges, following the defeat.
