Fresh from a miraculous comeback against Pahang in the FA Cup, Perak couldn't continue in the same vein at their home ground as Johor Darul Ta'zim ran out eventual 3-0 winners in Saturday's Malaysia Super League match day 19 action in Ipoh.
Mehmet Durakovic kept faith with the team that succeeded in the semi-final and was almost rewarded in the first half as his Perak side controlled the match and created several good goalscoring chance to take the lead in the match against the yet to be beaten JDT team.
However Ronaldo Henrique Silva and Raianderson da Costa Morais were among the major culprits in wasting good opportunities when they had JDT on the backrope.
