Terengganu FC knew before going into Tuesday night's clash against PKNS FC that they held the upper hand compared to Negeri Sembilan as both chased for the remaining knock-out stage berth from Group A after Kedah already previously clinched one of the two spots.
Despite knowing that their better goal difference tally effectively gave them a point more than Negeri, Nafuzi Zain did not take his chance with that risk. His side tore into PKNS right from the start to secure safe passage to the quarterfinal stage of the oldest cup competition in Southeast Asia.
