Instant Reaction : Indonesia 0-2 Singapore

"Sopcast" let me down again and a white knight in Kallangroar.com recommended this alternative -"SPVOD". Need not to worry about the buffering of the clip as it was smooth-sailing throughout the match, although it was lag by a few seconds (which always the case). And we did it again at Senanyang (aka Gelora Bung Karno Stadium) with a 2-0 win over the hosts, who must be feeling a lot of pressure before and now, after the match. Not a bad display by Baihakki Khaizan at the back and fair to say we are slowly progressing after every match... See you guys back home.

[for external post] Never far from Controversies

The recent controversy during our match against Burma in the AFF Suzuki Cup prompted me to blog something on it for an independent soccer blog - " Soccer City FC ". Extracted from the article as below: "As what a commentator joked on the previous night's live telecast of the match between Singapore and Myanmar in the Suzuki Cup Group A fixture, "Singapore seems to be always in this "walk-out" controversy" when the Myanmarese staged a "walk-out" after Singapore scored their third goal in a bizarre fashion. Vietnamese referee Phung Dinh Dung was the man of that moment when he allowed Singapore to restart the game with a free-kick quickly taken that caught the Myanmar players unaware (whom they thought the referee would only restart the game after the injured Singapore player had given treatment to his injury) and allowed Nigerian-born striker Agu Casmir to score his second of the night, Tempers flared and saw Myanmarese 'keeper Aung A

"Ooops!! I did it AGAIN" Mediacorp

I certainly pray hard the guys at Mediacorp will change their mind by for once get rid of Gurmit Singh (above), in order to allow us to catch the Singapore-Indonesia match on Channel 5. Football fans are puzzled what the terrestrial broadcaster can allowed "live" slots when we played against the Khmers and the Burmese but not against the Indonesia?? Click for better view... ... and subject us to some slapstick - the "F" graded "Just For Laugh"! (sorry but I can't laugh at all when you jokers denied my viewing pleasure). I just pray hard the livestream will be ok on the match day...

Instant Reaction : Singapore 3-1 Burma

Don't have any luck today as the livestream was down since this afternoon... can't figure out why and therefore had to watch the game on the terrestrial channel (courtesy to Mum's "making way" again.. ). A repeat of the 2007 "walk-out" as the Burmese staged a walk-out, after they disagreed with the referee's decision to allow Singapore to take the free-kick too quickly and resulted the third goal scored by Agu Casmir in the 74th minute. As what Mark Richmond mentioned, "Nothing wrong with the referee's decision, as he (the referee) gave the go-ahead to allow (Noh) Alam Shah to take the free-kick, while Shi Jiayi (who was injured) was on the grounded" . Nonetheless, tempers flared and saw Burmese 'keeper Aung Aung Oo deservedly sent off for push the referee, Phung Dinh Dung of Vietnam. Phung was subjected to those sarcastic applause from the Burmese after he blew the final whistle. Bravery to the Vietnamese referee who stood his gro

Instant Reaction : Singapore 5-0 Cambodia

Agu's opener...(ripped off PC) Ok..ok.. 5-0, I did not expected that as the talk was that the Cambodians were gonna packed their boys in the box when they played against us.. 5-0 is a good result as least morale-boosting in this sense but they jolly well know the next fixtures against the Burmese and Indonesians will be the real test of character. Well done and good luck, Boys..
