Season 2 Episode 20: Selangor thrash Negeri Sembilan, G. Palmeiro debut and KL crisis brewing?

Malaysian football exploded into life this week in the Piala Malaysia.

Selangor sent a statement to the rest of the competition, demolishing Negeri Sembilan 5–1 in a ruthless display of attacking firepower. Clinical in front of goal, relentless in transition. Is this finally the year the Red Giants turn dominance into silverware?

Over in Kuching, it was a night to remember. The Cats are through to the semi-finals, and all eyes were on debutant Gabriel Palmeiro, who marked his first appearance with a goal. Instant impact. New hero, or just the beginning of something bigger in Sarawak?

And then there’s KL City. Beating Terengganu to march into the next round. Solid, professional, efficient. But with internal questions swirling and pressure mounting off the pitch, are they quietly building momentum, or holding it together just enough before the storm hits?

Big wins. Breakout debuts. Heavy expectations.

The Piala Malaysia is heating up. Who’s peaking at the right time, and who’s hiding cracks beneath the surface?

Join Keesh, Aiman and Chun Hang in this quickfire episode of The Malaysian Football Podcast.
