Kedah are in the FA Cup final, with the Red Eagles set to face Perak this Saturday at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium.
The success of their campaign so far has been achieved with the help of two Singaporeans on the team; head coach Aidil Sharin Sahak and centre back Shakir Hamzah.
The defender has been an instrumental figure on Aidil's team; who recently also finished the Super League campaign in fourth place.
Both joined the Red Eagles before this season began from 2018 AFC Cup Asean Zone champions Home United, and according to Shakir, being able to continue working under Aidil has tremendously helped his first ever season at a non-Singaporean club.
