Sarkunan wants to overcome his size disadvantage, win a trophy

Selangor midfielder Sarkunan Krishnansamy has taken advantage of Endrick dos Santos' injury to step in and stake his claim in the Red Giants starting line-up.

He has made four starts in this season already, and his latest; in their 1-1 round 9 Super League draw against Perak on Friday was perhaps the 22-year old's best performance yet in 2019.

With his team down to 10 men following Nurridzuan Abu Hassan's sending off in the 58th minute, the young midfielder rose to the occassion, helping Selangor protect their danger area by disrupting the visitors' attempts to move the ball around in midfield.
