Home United Coach Steve Darby praised Indra Sahdan who was in excellent from being at the right place & the right time to score a hat-trick.

At the same tone he also lashed out at a section of fans who relentlessly booed Protectors midfielder Fahmie Abdullah during their 5-0 win over Club Valencia.

The section of Home fans, who have not taken a shine to the flamboyant but frustrating Fahmie since his signing two seasons ago, barracked the 30-year-old after he made a series of stray passes. Fahmie was apparently so frustrated by the abuse that he lashed out at Valencia's Ahmed Firaz with a petulant kick in the second half, earning a yellow card and ironically more cat-calls.

Darby find these so-called fans who boo individual players pathetic as true Home United fans stand by players all the time.

He also said if they are going to boo when the team are 5-0 up, then they should go find their entertainment somewhere else.

The Englishman added that Fahmie had the support of the rest of the Home players.
