two goals off Nazrul Arshad (third) and Ismail Shahrom (17th).
Malay Mail finished seventh when they beat Kuala Lumpur Schools Sports
Council 2-1 at the same venue. KLSSC drew first blood in the fourth minute
off a Faisal Kamaruddin field goal but Malay Mail fought back and their
hero was S. Mahendran who scored in the 38th and 59th minutes.
