Selayang B worked hard to earn the three points to keep up with the leaders in Divsion 3A, as they beat Highlander Hockey Club 2-1.
Selayang took the lead on 15th minute via a deflection by Mohd Zakry Mohd Yussof as he then doubled the advantage in the 36th minute when he finished off a delightful one-two.

emerge victorious.
