Menyayat hati: Arif Aiman Hanapi Johor Darul Ta’zim Fc (Pertengahan) Baru Meninggal Dunia Pada Usia 22 Tahun…see..more…Last night, the leaders of the Chinese Super League (CSL), Shanghai Port, experienced firsthand the brilliance of Malaysian football star Arif Aiman Hanapi, as Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) battled to a 2-2 draw in the AFC Champions League Elite (ACLE) match at Pudong Football Stadium.
While much of the focus was on the nine foreign players in JDT’s lineup, it was the young Malaysian talent who stole the show with two stunning goals.
Arif’s first moment of magic came in the 44th minute when he dribbled from the wing to the center, unleashing a shot that left Shanghai Port goalkeeper Yan Junling helpless, as reported by Buletin TV3.
His second goal was a masterclass in solo attacking, receiving a long pass from Jorge Obregon, bypassing defenders, and once again defeating Junling to give JDT a brief lead.
The performance earned Arif praise from fans and officials alike, with the AFC Champions League Elite’s official X account sharing a clip of his goal, exclaiming, “Catch me if you can! Arif Aiman lights up Malaysia’s night.”
