India, South Korea Declared Joint Sultan Azlan Shah Cup Champions

Jarang kita dengar...

IPOH, May 16 (Bernama) -- Defending champion India and South Korea were declared joint winners of the 19th Sultan Azlan Shah Cup Championship after the final was called off due to heavy downpour.

Both teams played to a scoreless draw until the 12th minute before the match was stopped as the pitch was waterlogged.

The players waited for 45 minutes before the match was finally called off by officials and both teams were declared joint winners.

For India, it was the fifth win for them after lifting the trophy in 2009, 1995, 1991 and 1985 while for South Korea, it was their second victory after 1996.

India's Sardar Singh and South Korea's Nam Hyun Woo were jointly named top scorers with nine goals each to their credit.

Malaysian goalkeeper S. Kumar was named the best gatekeeper while Egypt bagged the fairplay title.

Australia clinched the third place after beating Malaysia 5-3 while Pakistan had to content with the fifth place after edging China 6-5 in a penalty shootout after they played to a 1-1 draw during regulation time.

Report: Jogathon Warisan (Larian Kubur)

By Aiman Cheah

Date: 25 April 2010
Venue: Kwang Tong Cemertary, Kuala Lumpur
Distance: 11km
Category: Men OPen

This is the first competitive back to back event for me. The previous week being the Shoestring Run. Slightly better prepared. I manged to put in 18km run for the week; 4km on Tuesday, 8km on Thursday and 6km on Friday.

I turned up quite late at the venue - ten minutes to seven. I did not expect the run to be early as last year it started at around 8. Last year I was in the junior category.

Men open would be much tougher. My stamina was still lacking as I had to stop to catch my breath during the race. It was a good work out since the route was hilly. Finishing the race in 58:26 was good. However, I was quite disappointed to have missed the 30th position. 34th was not too bad. Perhaps, if I had started further in front, that might made a difference. I was held up for quite some time after the flag off.
