SABAH FC were given an unexpected lifeline by Gabriel Peres in the 1-1 draw with Penang FC in the first leg of the MFL Challenge Cup final at the City Stadium in Penang on Saturday.
The trusted Brazilian, who has so often in the past rescued the team against all odds, did it again deep into injury time when the team was trailing 0-1.

He coolly converted the spot kick as a result of a foul on him by the opposite keeper in the 95th minute for the equaliser.
It was heartbreak at the final whistle for Penang FC. I felt sorry for them as I thought they were the more organised side on the night.
