At the Shah Alam Stadium, high riding Selangor brought down to earth with a thud by T'Team who were clearly the better side of the day while Selangor were a pale shadow with stray passes and muffed chances the order of the day.

Selangor's missed chances early in the match came back to haunt them when T-Team struck the first blow in the 50th minuet through a Mohd Norfarhan Muhammad header while Indra Putra Mahayuddin ensured all three points with an 84th minute strike.
