KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Football League (MFL) is facing fresh questions over millions of ringgit in unpaid merit-based prize money from the 2025-26 Super League season, with frustrated clubs accusing the governing body of "moving the goalposts".

This is a brief of a report by another newsroom. The excerpt below is from the original.
