During 2013 AFC Cup 4th match against SHB Đà Nẵng the absence of Badhri Radzi and Shakir Shaari in the middle of the park slightly effects the team performance. Despite missing the key players, credit should be given to Zairo who did slot through a superb pass to Dickson Nwakaeme before the Nigerian slot home to give the 1–0 lead to the team in the 73rd minute.[5]
