It was only a much better

It's never right for me to comment on anything when I never see the game for myself and had to depend much on the match reports and reviews following the 4-0 defeat to the Jordanians in the Asian Cup Qualifiers in Amman.

Such an approach was also mentioned by TODAY newspaper when it mentioned: ”... the gulf in class showed as Jordan made camp in the Singapore half throughout most of the
