Following his inclusion in the recent SOF-Peter Lim Charity Cup match, almost everyone in the fraternity had been guessing if former Lions captain Indra Sahdan Daud would be called up by the newly appointed national team coach Bernd Stange in their upcoming friendlies against Myanmar and Laos.

"I am surprised, but happy at the same time for being called up to the national team." said Indra who shared his initial reaction with this blogger upon the release of the national team list.

He added:"I never thought about making a comeback (following the international retirement in 2010), but it's a proud moment to be able to wear the national team jersey again."

Said the Lion City Cup alumni: "I am not expecting anything, I'm just going to do my part as a team player and try to help the younger players in whatever I could."

According to the media release by the Football Association of Singapore on this evening, the national team will be playing against Myanmar (in Yangon) and Laos (in Vientiane) on June 4 and June 7 respectively.
