Felda retain Super League status at expense of PKNP, KL

The relegation battle of the 2019 Malaysia Super League is over, with Felda United the sole survivor thanks to a 5-1 thumping of Kedah at home on Sunday.

Beginning the day in the relegation zone in 11th place, the Fighters were vying for the 10th place and safety with PKNP FC, as well as last-placed Kuala Lumpur (KL).

Although their final matchday encounter was at home, it was against FA Cup finalists Kedah. Fortunately for them, the visitors head coach Aidil Sharin Sahak fielded mostly second stringers in Jengka, perhaps with the cup final next weekend in mind.
