KUALA TERENGGANU, Nov 23 — Terengganu Football Club Sdn Bhd (TFCSB) has condemned the violent action of its fans against the Selangor FC team after the Malaysia Cup second-leg semi-final at Stadium Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin (SSMZA) here last night.
Its chief executive officer Ab Rasid Jusoh described the action as uncivilised and uncharacteristic of the Turtles’ supporters, as they had been well behaved throughout this season.
He apologised to the Selangor team management and players who were affected by the incident.
“We would like to express our deepest regrets and condemn the unruly act committed by Terengganu FC (TFC) fans on the visiting team’s bus last night.
“This incident has not only marred the club’s name but also given a bad image of our beloved Terengganu,” he said in a statement today.
Ab Rasid said the club would learn from what happened last night and prevent a recurrence of the incident.
At about midnight, a group of fans hurled stones at the Selangor FC bus as it was leaving the venue, smashing its windows and almost hitting some passengers, who included young children.
