AFC Cup™ Final Flashback: When JDT were crowned Malaysia’s first Asian champions

Kuala Lumpur: Kuala Lumpur City FC are now just one victory away from winning a historic AFC Cup™ title – their fairytale run made all the more impressive by the fact that the Malaysia Super League club are in their debut campaign in the continental competition.

That honour belongs to Johor Darul Ta’zim, who got their hands on the trophy back in 2015 with Hodak also playing a key role in the success.
