• SGPL - Tampines Rovers 2-1 Young Lions 180921

Balancing act by Baihakki Khaizan

Tampines Rovers had to work their socks off till the end to ensure they finally snapped their six-game winless streak by beating a resilient Young Lions 2-1 last evening (18/9) at Our Tampines Hub.

Zehrudin Mehmedović gave the Stags the lead before half-time that was cancelled out by the spot-kick from Young Lions' skipper Jacob Mahler in the 71st minute.

However, "Super-sub" Taufik Suparno's strike in the 73rd minute ensured Tampines' misery of late had ended with this hard-fought victory.

• SGPL - Albirex Niigata (S) 0-0 Tampines Rovers 250921

Tampines' GK Syazwan Buhari felt the impact of the "tiang"

Seems like an intriguing see-saw battle for the AIA Singapore Premier League title race after Albirex Niigata FC Singapore failed to shackle the equally subpar Tampines Rovers Football Club in a goalless stalemate held last night (24/9) at the Jurong East Stadium.

The nil-nil draw meant the White Swans could only extend their advantage at the top to three points instead of five from Lion City Sailors, their nearest rivals in the title race.
