A SIXER FROM FAISAL

From: www.nst.com.my

THE senior teams of the Bukit Jalil and Bandar Penawar Sports Schools went on eight-goal rampages against their opponents to stamp their mark on Division One of the MHF-Milo-NSC Junior Hockey League yesterday.

BJSS clobbered Kelantan 8-0, and not to be outdone, BPSS-Thunderbolt hammered Anderson of Ipoh by the same margin.

National player Faizal Saari, 19, scored six goals for Thunderbolt in the 11th, 15th, 21st, 37th, 59th and 68th minutes.

Firhan Ashaari scored the other two in the 17th and 70th minute.

As for BJSS, Faridzul Afiq Mohamad delivered a hat-trick (41st, 51st, 54th) while Ahmad Termidzi (fifth), Fitri Ismail (21st), Shahriman Zali (25th), Asraf Bahari (60th) and Khairul Naim (70th) scored a goal each.

BJSS coach S. Prakash, however, lamented that eight was not enough.

"We are tied on 12 points with Thunderbolt and UniKL, but both have scored 25 and 22 goals respectively, while we only have 15 after four matches.

"I believe the race to the title will be very close from here on, and goals scored will play a crucial role in the crowning of the league champions.

"From now, we not only need to keep winning, but also score as many as we can to keep pace with Thunderbolt and UniKL," said Prakash.
