Sarawak needs to be a little bit sharper at goal and improve on set pieces before their FA Cup match against Kelantan on Feb 27 at the Sarawak Stadium here, according to coach Robert Alberts.

He said although Kelantan lost 0-4 at home to Police in the Super league last night, it did not mean The Red Warriors were an easy team to beat.

“After losing 0-4, Kelantan would want to bounce back and we need to play better as we don’t want to go for extra time and a penalty shoot-out. To beat a team like Kelantan, we need to be sharper at goal," Alberts told reporters after his team's goalless draw against Pahang in the Super League at the Sarawak Stadium last night.

Meanwhile, Pahang coach Zainal Abidin Hassan said he was confident that his team would turn around things although the Malaysia Cup defending champions had only managed two draws and lost one match after three matches since the league started this season.

"Although we failed to win against Sarawak, the boys put up a fine show," he said.
