And Terengganu skipper Carli De Murga has inspired those around him in their Super League matches thus far. The players will be banking on the Filipino international leadership qualities again when they take on table-toppers Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) at the Sultan Ibrahim Stadium today. The 32-year-old has adapted quickly with Terengganu and largely thanks to him, the Turtles are currently second with 18 points. “It was a timely boost as it gave us the motivation and confidence to face the defending champions, ” said De Murga. In their last meeting at the Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin Stadium, JDT narrowly won 1-0 through an early goal by Safawi Rasid in the fifth minute.
