The Singapore national football team begun their preparation for the crucial AFC Asian Cup qualifiers against Oman this evening at the Jalan Besar Stadium.

Much of the training emphasized on the passing game the ex-Iraq national coach trying to preach to his team and the German coach is pleased that the players are responding well to his methods.

Said the 65-year-old after the session:"The players are happy with the training and I am glad that we are following the right direction, but it takes time as it's a step-by-step process.

Coach Stange talks to the media after the session
"We are trying to play the type of football with the players we have now," added coach Stange.

"What we need now is more confidence in ourselves to play the passing and dominating football since we are lacking in physical, which is why I hope we can have a full capacity (crowd) when we play Oman to give us that confidence, motivation to do so."said the former Belarus coach.

The Lions are scheduled to play the Omanis on the 14th of August at the Jalan Besar Stadium follow by friendly matches away to Hong Kong and China.
