Home United
coach Steve Darby hailed Fahmie Abdullah a
'Brazilian in a Singaporean's body' after the midfielder hauled his side into
the semi-finals of the AFC Cup.
The
Protectors were down a goal against Olympic
Coach Steve
Darby said Fahmie is a Brazilian in a Singaporean's
body & those fans who have booed him this season should be apologising to the player after what he had done tonight. When
sending Fahmie on, the instruction was to do
something magical & he certainly did that because he had two looks at the
ball & created both goals as a result. A magical player.
Fahmie is known as Bishan boos boy as his performance for the Protectors during the 2 season with the club had been far from convincing.
