ATM moved closer to the quarter-finals of the Malaysia Cup on Saturday after recording a 4-1 win over Johor at the Majlis Perbandaran Selayang Stadium.
After losing their opening Group A game to Sime Darby, the Armed Forces bounced back by taking four points from the next two games against Selangor and Johor.
And they continued their good form on Saturday as they took the lead in the 43rd minute through a Bruno Martelotto effort, before Marlon Alex James added a second in the 75th minute.
D. Christie Jayaseelan then scored six minutes later to make it 3-0, and although Rasyid Aya managed to pull one back for the visitors immediately after, the night belonged to ATM as they rounded off the scoring at the death when Martelotto doubled his tally.
The result sent B. Sathianathan’s charges top of the group ahead of Sime Darby, who played out a 1-1 draw against Selangor at the Shah Alam Stadium.

A glancing header by Hariss Harun in the 61st minute handed the hosts the lead, but Perak responded five minutes later when Noor Hazrul Mustafa scored with a ferocious freekick.
