Negeri Sembilan FC draws 2-2 with Star City FC

Negeri Sembilan FC secured a 2-2 draw against Star City FC at the Tuanku Abdul Rahman Stadium in Paroi, earning a crucial point following a series of recent losses. Star City FC held a 2-0 lead through goals from Pedro Henrique and Moses Atede before Negeri Sembilan mounted a late comeback. National winger Akhyar Rashid acted as the hero, scoring a penalty in the 77th minute and a dramatic equalizer in the 94th minute.

Negeri Sembilan FC head coach Daniel Gimenez Alcaniz expressed mixed emotions regarding the performance, noting that while the result was a relief, the team's overall form remains a concern after recent defeats in the Malaysia Super League and the FA Cup. He praised the impact of the substitute players who helped stabilize the team in the final stages of the match.

Star City FC coach Mehmed Durakovic expressed disappointment at conceding late goals despite controlling much of the game. He stated that the team would focus on training harder to prevent similar outcomes in future matches.
