SAMARAHAN: Serian FA’s new winger, Kamarul Julai, said he visualised his diving header in his mind as the team pushes forward in the Sarawak Premier League semi-finals.
The 32-year-old native of Kampung Jaya Ria scored a diving header at the far post from a free kick in the 21st minute of Serian’s second-leg quarter-final match against Kapit FA, helping the team secure a 3-1 victory and a 6-1 aggregate win to advance to the last four.
Kamarul, who recently joined Serian FA as a new winger, expressed gratitude for the team’s hard work during training and emphasised the importance of focus as Serian FA prepares for the semi-final stage of the competition.
“Honestly, the goal was in my head the moment the ball was crossed by my teammate. I just went for it,” Kamarul told Sarawak Tribune at Stadium UNIMAS on Saturday (Jan 17).
The lone goal not only boosted Serian’s morale but also ignited Kamarul’s determination to continue delivering his best performance as the Sarawak Premier League 2025 reaches the semi-final stage.
“What we have trained in the last week worked out well. We trained hard together, and that’s why we won. I don’t ask for anything else, just that my teammates stay focused until the end. I want Serian FA to keep winning and become champions,” he added.
With the semi-finals looming, Serian FA will face a tough challenge against Samarahan FA, and Kamarul is confident that the team will maintain their focus and fighting spirit.
