Penang, KTJ stroll into semis

12/06/1997

THE Milo-National Schools Under-18 women's soccer at the Police Depot
ground in Jalan Semarak, Kuala Lumpur, was a wet but lively affair.
The constant drizzle failed to stop Penang Combined Schools and Kolej
Tuanku Ja'afar (KTJ) from booking their tickets to the semifinals at the
same venue today.
They will meet Perlis Combined Schools and Sultan Ibrahim High School of
Johor respectively.
Yesterday, Penang Schools started attacking Tuanku Ampuan Durah School
from the whistle.
Tuanku Ampuan cracked under pressure when left winger Fatimah Talib made
a pass to the penalty area which resulted in a goalmouth melee. Norfaezah
Ngah took control of the ball and scored Penang's first in the seventh
minute.
In the 27th minute, a Penang player handled the ball in the penalty box
and the referee pointed to the spot. Tuanku Ampuan's Wan Norzamzalina has
the goalkeeper diving in the wrong way.
After the breather, Penang's Siti Salwa Khalid made a good pass to
Srimarziwati Pahrurazzi who kicked in their second goal.
After that goal, Tuanku Ampuan players looked lost and let in an easy
goal in the 55th minute. The match winner was Diana Talib.
At the adjacent field, Kolej Tuanku Ja'afar (KTJ) hammered Tunku Ampuan
Najihah High School (TAN) 7-1 for a place in the semis.
