Temasek Tweaked
Tian Yonghang praised
Chad Thach on his passionate display throughout the match, as well as for his stellar instincts against Haiti in the U21 Nations Cup that saw him score twice for Singapore. "He is the guy that all our younger players should look up to for the moment." the head coach smiled. "Not that they are all that far behind!"
It was quite a bit more nerve-wracking for the Farmer Bunnies as they hosted Temasek United with their Division Three spot on the line, and although they did prevail thanks to two nice drives from
Lim Guang Qiang,
Vishnu Tallapaka had to admit that it remained an unsteady performance against the semi-professional challengers.
"Not only that, they ran
Lau Keng Kwang and
Toh Eng Guang off with blatant fouling." Tallapaka grumbled. "The referee should really have clamped down hard early on."
Grilled International pummelled Yemeni III.13 visitors Br'ch din Wadi for six in the meantime, with
Leri Bezhanishvili noticeably gaining confidence after heading
Osertz Indurain's corner home in the third minute. It was a coming of age of sorts for International's trainees, with
Egidius van der Duin,
Redhuan bin Mohd Aleshahfezan and
Remond Bergervoet also finding the net.
