Despite two unexpected floodlight blackouts, Chrigor Flores Moraes lit up Stadium Bandaraya with a breathtaking hat-trick that propelled Selangor FC to a dominant 5-1 victory over Penang FC.
When play resumed after a lengthy delay, Selangor wasted no time. A brilliant sequence by Moraes set up Faisal Halim for the opener, before Pitcha Aura doubled the advantage.
Moraes then took matters into his own hands, scoring twice — one from capitalizing on a defensive error, and another through a mesmerizing solo run past the halfway line.
Penang’s lone moment of hope came from Tchetche Kipre, but it was nowhere near enough to stop Selangor’s relentless momentum.
