KUALA LUMPUR: Though Sabah are through to the next round, the players have been told not to take their feet off the pedal in the last AFC Cup Group H match against Indonesia's PSM Makassar at the Likas Stadium today.

The Rhinos had earlier booked their ticket to the ASEAN Zonal semi-finals after collecting 12 points from five matches.

Coach Ong Kim Swee, who just celebrated his 53rd birthday on Monday, wants the Rhinos to continue their momentum.

He said he will field Sabah's best available players against the Indonesian side though it is not a crucial match.

But defender Gabriel Peres and midfielder Gary Steven Robbat are carrying injuries and look doubtful for the match.

"Though we have qualified for the next round, we want to continue our momentum.

"It's important that whoever is picked to play, he should be able to deliver and it's important for us to maintain our good performance and we don't want to drop points."
