Hard-fought Night In Melaka: NSFC Fall 0–2 At Hang Jebat

Negeri Sembilan FC returned from Hang Jebat empty-handed after a challenging 0–2 defeat to Melaka FC in tonight’s Liga Super encounter.

The home side struck early, with Brazilian import Juan Douglas Da Silva netting twice—first in the 3rd minute and again in the 26th minute—to secure all three points for Melaka. Despite a strong push from NSFC, the early setback proved difficult to overturn.

Melaka’s opener came through a powerful strike from Juan Douglas after a deflected corner fell kindly at his feet, beating Azri Ghani in goal. NSFC worked to regain control, but Melaka’s defensive structure limited clear breakthroughs.

The hosts doubled their lead midway through the first half when Juan Douglas found the net again. Although NSFC players appealed for offside, the VAR review confirmed the goal, giving Melaka a two-goal cushion heading into the break.

The second half saw NSFC create promising moments. Just two minutes after the restart, Luqman Hakim Shamsudin came close, but his effort drifted wide. In the 56th minute, Jovan Motika nearly halved the deficit, only to be denied by the left post.

Tension rose late in the match, and captain Ahmad Khuzaimi Piee was shown a red card following an off-the-ball incident.

Despite the result, NSFC continues to show fighting spirit, and attention now turns to regrouping and preparing for the next fixture.

Post-Match Reaction: Nidzam Jamil Urges Stronger Winning Mentality

Negeri Sembilan FC were left with mixed emotions after a 1–1 draw against Terengganu FC at Stadium Tuanku Abdul Rahman, despite playing with a one-man advantage for most of the match.

In the post-match press conference, head coach Nidzam Jamil shared an honest and reflective assessment of his team’s performance, calling for greater maturity, tactical discipline, and a true “winning mentality.”

“We lost two points today.”

Opening his remarks, Nidzam admitted that the team should have secured all three points, especially after Terengganu were reduced to 10 men early in the match.

“I feel we lost two points. Against 10 men, we needed to show better tactical management and know how to kill the game.” 

Despite the numerical advantage, Nidzam highlighted that Terengganu continued to control portions of the match and even threatened late on, exposing moments of naivety from his squad.

Learning How to ‘Kill the Game’

The head coach emphasised that closing out matches is not just about tactical precision, but also mental strength.

“We need to grow mentally as winners. When we’re leading, we must know how to finish the game. We cannot afford small mistakes.” 

He cited previous matches—against Brunei and Penang—where similar lapses occurred, reminding the team that these patterns must be corrected for the club to progress.

Playing Against 10 Men Is Not Always Easier

Nidzam also pushed back on the perception that facing a team with fewer players automatically guarantees superiority.

“Many people don’t agree, but playing against 10 is often the hardest. The team with 10 players usually shows more concentration than the 11.” 

He stressed that football requires collective thinking—numerical advantage only matters when the entire team responds with the right mentality and discipline.

Praise for Luqman Hakim’s First Super League Goal

One bright spot from the match was Luqman Hakim Shamsudin, who scored his first Liga Super goal for NSFC.

“I’m happy for him. He works hard in training and with the national team. He deserves that goal.” 

Nidzam expressed confidence that Luqman’s continued development will benefit the squad in upcoming matches.

Recognising Progress, But Demanding More

Reflecting on their opponents, Nidzam reminded that Terengganu—consistently finishing in the top four in recent seasons—are a strong side, while Negeri Sembilan are still building from last year’s 13th-place finish.

“There is improvement, but why take one point when we could take three? We must learn and grow from this.” 

Despite the frustration, he remained positive about the team’s trajectory, stressing that such challenges are part of the evolution of a developing squad.

Negeri Sembilan FC resume preparations immediately, with Nidzam emphasising that the next phase of the season requires sharper focus, stronger mentality, and the hunger to secure maximum points.

Late Equaliser Denies Negeri Sembilan FC in Hard-Fought Draw at Paroi

Terengganu FC staged a late comeback to hold Negeri Sembilan FC (NSFC) to a 1-1 draw in this evening’s Super League clash at Stadium Tuanku Abdul Rahman, Paroi.

Despite being reduced to 10 men as early as the 15th minute, the visitors displayed remarkable resilience to challenge the home side throughout the match. Terengganu’s Myanmar import, Kyaw Min Oo, was shown a straight red card by referee Muhammad Usaid Jamal after a foul on Joseph Esso.

With a numerical advantage, Nidzam Jamil’s men piled relentless pressure on the Terengganu goal, which was initially guarded by Syed Muhammad Nasrulhaq. However, the goalkeeper was later forced off due to injury and replaced by Suhaimi Husin.

NSFC finally broke the deadlock in first-half stoppage time when Luqman Hakim Shamsudin finished clinically, giving the Hobin Jang Hobin faithful plenty to cheer about as the teams headed into the break 1-0 ahead.

The second half saw Terengganu reorganise their play, pushing forward with counter-attacking intent despite the disadvantage. NSFC’s defence held firm for most of the half, thwarting several promising attempts from the visitors.

However, the equaliser eventually arrived in the 90th minute when Nurillo Tukhtasinov capitalised on a well-placed pass from Muhammad Ubaidullah Shamsul Fazli to level the score.

The 1-1 result stood until the final whistle, with both sides ultimately settling for a share of the points.

Negeri Sembilan Bounce Back with 2-0 Triumph Over PDRM at Paroi

Negeri Sembilan FC (NSFC) rediscovered their winning rhythm with a commanding 2-0 victory over PDRM FC in the Super League clash at Stadium Tuanku Abdul Rahman, Paroi, earlier this evening.

The result extended NSFC’s impressive home record against PDRM, following their previous 5-0 win over the same opponents at the Paroi fortress.

After last week’s tough 0-4 defeat to Selangor FC in the FA Cup quarterfinal first leg, head coach Nidzam Jamil fielded a strong lineup determined to bounce back — led by the energetic young striker Luqman Hakim Shamsudin spearheading the attack.

Both teams began brightly, trading attacks in a balanced opening half. Negeri Sembilan came close in the 22nd minute when A. Selvan’s close-range effort was denied by PDRM goalkeeper Mohd Ifwat Akmal Chek Kassim. Minutes later, Luqman’s strike drifted just wide, while Jovan Motika’s solo run was stopped despite rounding the keeper in the 33rd minute.

The second half saw a revitalized Negeri Sembilan take control. Their persistence paid off in the 51st minute when Joseph Esso broke the deadlock, calmly finishing a clever pass from Luqman to make it 1-0.

Buoyed by the opener, the home side pressed harder — and just six minutes later, the Paroi crowd erupted once again as Motika found the back of the net with a stunning free kick from 25 meters, sealing a 2-0 lead for the Jangs.

Despite PDRM’s late efforts to close the gap, the Negeri Sembilan defense stood firm to maintain a clean sheet.

As the final whistle blew, more than 6,000 loyal fans at STAR Paroi celebrated a well-deserved win — one that reignited confidence and momentum in Negeri Sembilan’s Super League campaign.
