SELANGOR made a promising start to the 2014 Malaysia Super League when they notched a comfortable 2-0 win over Felda United in an early kick-off to the season opener.
The Red Giants’ victory came courtesy of a quickfire brace from Brazilian import Paulo Rangel, who scored both goals through his head.

The Southern Tigers dominated the entire game, but found the Silver State a tough cookie to crack. They were only assured of a win when defender Mohd Haffi got his marching orders in the 80th minute.
A new look Kelantan meanwhile showed their mettle with a comeback 2-1 win over newcomers Sime Darby at the Sultan Mohammad IV stadium.
Fadzli Saari’s early strike shocked The Red Warriors, but they staged a second half comeback and got a deserved win after a brace from returning striker Mohammad Ghaddar.
