Club career
[edit]Early career

Te match was marred by a crowd of Muslim FC’s supporters trying to attack the referee after the final whistle for sending off one of their players in the second half. The victory enabled KRL to take their points tally to 32 from 15 matches, above the second-placed Pakistan Air Force, until eventually winning the league title again at the end of the season.[3]
