In a statement today, the Malaysian Football League (MFL) said the Malaysia Super League game between Selangor FC and JDT at the MBPJ Stadium during game week 14 would be played behind closed doors.

MFL also said Selangor FC would have to compensate JDT and MFL for the financial losses resulting from their withdrawal from the May 10 season-opener at the Sultan Ibrahim Stadium in Iskandar Puteri.

It said JDT and the MFL secretariat would be submitting information about the costs involved to Selangor FC for review and further discussion.

MFL, which said the RM100,000 fine would be donated to charity, added that the decisions were reached at its recent board meeting.

On May 8, Selangor FC announced it had decided to withdraw from the Charity Shield match amid concerns over a string of attacks against footballers. The MFL cancelled the game the next day.

Terengganu FC winger Akhyar Rashid was attacked by two robbers upon returning from training, while Selangor FC winger Faisal Halim was left in critical condition after being splashed with acid at a shopping mall.

JDT midfielder Safiq Rahim, meanwhile, had his car windscreen smashed by unknown assailants.

Police are still investigating the cases.
