In GUA MUSANG, some 5,000 Kelantan football supporters gathered at South Kelantan Development Authority (Kesedar) square to witness a procession of the prestigious Malaysia Cup.
Kelantan beat Negeri Sembilan 2-1 in the final on Saturday to lift the Malaysia Cup for the first time in 89 years.
The procession led by Kelantan Football Association (Kafa) president Tan Sri Annuar Musa was joined by Gua Musang Member of Parliament Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah and Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate for Galas Abdul Aziz Yusoff.
"We took the difficult road to reach here. We were heavily fined, had financial problem and difficulty in signing players but we still manage to emerge champions," said Annuar.
He said claims that BN hijacked Kelantan football did not arise as it was Umno that revived Kelantan football.
In KOTA BHARU, over 10,000 supporters gathered at Kelantan Trade Centre to welcome the squad (The Red Warriors) with the Malaysia Cup.
The Kelantan squad's arrival together with 30 superbikes was accompanied with music by Kumpulan Dikir Barat Sri Seterpa. - Bernama
