Official Statement: Prohibited Items Policy at Stadium STAR Paroi

Negeri Sembilan FC (NSFC) wishes to clarify recent discussions regarding the prohibition of bringing bottles and personal drink containers such as tumblers into the stadium during the recent match against Sabah FC.

This policy is fully aligned with Article 2.44.3 (iii)(a) of the Malaysia League Manual 2025–2026, which clearly states that bottles, glass containers, plastic bottles, tumblers, and other similar objects are classified as prohibited items. These items are not permitted within the stadium perimeter as they pose potential safety and security risks.

Furthermore, under Article 2.44.3 (iii)(f), food vendors and spectators are also restricted from bringing in outside food, beverages in bottles, or solid containers. Exceptions may apply only for items such as baby food or medical necessities.

Why the Policy Exists

The restriction is not only about safety but also about maintaining stadium cleanliness and ensuring an enjoyable matchday experience for everyone. The club emphasizes that a secure, clean, and comfortable environment for all fans is its top priority.

Fans are therefore strongly advised not to bring tumblers, bottles, or other prohibited items listed by the Malaysian Football League (MFL). The full list includes items such as:

  • Bottles and tumblers
  • Cigarettes and e-cigarettes
  • Alcoholic beverages
  • Firecrackers and flares
  • Sharp objects
  • Umbrellas, helmets, vuvuzelas, air horns, and large bags (A4 size or bigger)
  • Outside food and drinks (including sunflower seeds/kuaci)
  • Drones and laser pointers

A complete illustrated list of prohibited items is also available for reference.

Commitment to Supporters

NSFC fully understands the needs of fans and appreciates their loyalty and passion. However, safety regulations and league laws must take priority. The club assures supporters that food and drinks will continue to be available inside the stadium for their convenience.

The management extends its deepest gratitude to all fans for their unwavering support and cooperation. Together, we can ensure that every matchday at Stadium Tuanku Abdul Rahman remains safe, vibrant, and filled with the pride of “Hobin Jang Hobin.”

Thank you.

At Stadium Negeri, 4,470 Kuching City fans went home delighted as their team cruised to a 4-0 win over Imigresen FC, with Ramadhan Saifullah, Danial Asri, and Petrus Shitembi all getting on the scoresheet.

“First of all, I want to say thank you to all our supporters for the trust and support. These last three matches, we’ve experienced something I’ve never seen before.

It’s not just me—our players need this kind of energy. We always try to play offensive football, but sometimes we must be cautious with ball possession.

Ruthless Jangs Stun Sabah with 3-0 Triumph at Paroi

Negeri Sembilan FC (NSFC) delivered a commanding performance on home soil, defeating Sabah FC 3-0 in their Super League clash at the Tuanku Abdul Rahman Stadium, Paroi, tonight.

The hosts opened the scoring in the 26th minute through import striker Jovan Motika, who dazzled with a mazy run past two defenders before unleashing a thunderous strike that left goalkeeper Khairul Fahmi Che Mat helpless.

Head coach Mohd Nidzam Jamil’s men doubled their advantage in the 40th minute when Alexander Agyakwa produced a composed finish, sending the home crowd into raptures as NSFC took a comfortable 2-0 lead into the break.

Sabah attempted to mount a comeback in the second half with several dangerous efforts, notably from Adjin Mujagic and Muhammad Jafri Firdaus Chew, but NSFC’s rock-solid defense stood firm.

Motika nearly bagged his second goal of the night in the 64th minute after another brilliant solo run, only to see his effort fly narrowly wide.

The home side sealed the victory in the 79th minute when Joseph Esso clinically finished off a superb pass from Mio Tsuneyasu, sending the packed stadium of over 20,000 fans into celebration.

Adding to the excitement was the debut of young forward Luqman Hakim Shamsudin, who impressed with his explosive runs and sharp passing, further strengthening NSFC’s attacking presence.

Coach Nidzam Pleased With Second-Half Response Against Imigresen FC

Negeri Sembilan FC showed grit and determination in their latest clash against Imigresen FC, with head coach Nidzam Jamil highlighting the team’s improved reaction in the second half as a key positive takeaway.

Reflecting on the match, Nidzam admitted that his side struggled to find their rhythm early on.

“In the first half, we couldn’t connect with the tempo we wanted, and we were punished with a goal that I believe we could have avoided,” he explained.

However, halftime adjustments made a visible impact. The introduction of key changes in midfield allowed NSFC to regain control and create chances, particularly through Mio and Luqman.

“We corrected certain areas, especially in midfield, and managed to generate opportunities. I was happy with the players’ response and their reaction in the second half,” said Nidzam.

The coach also emphasized the importance of mentality and intensity.

“At halftime, I reminded the players about the importance of attitude and playing at the right tempo to move the opposition. We tried to press higher, win second balls, and force Imigresen back. They defended well, but our players showed good effort.”

One standout from the match was young forward Luqman Hakim, who continued his development with another valuable performance.

“Luqman needs games like this to build his temperament and experience. Training is one thing, but real match exposure is different. I’m pleased with his positive attitude, and I believe he can continue contributing to the team whether starting or coming off the bench,” Nidzam added.

While the result may not have fully reflected NSFC’s efforts, the improved second-half display leaves plenty of encouragement for the squad moving forward.
