(This entry is formulated based on the media releases issued by Muse PR Pte Ltd, the PR agency of the mentioned event with images depicted in this entry provided via the same releases) Corinthians (in white) are favourites of the tournament Since the introduction of the present format in 2011, the semi-finals will not feature any two of the Singapore representative sides (i.e.: NFA U15 and NFA U16) in the 25th Canon Lion City with the conclusion of the group stages. Following three days of group stages competition, the likes of English side Arsenal, Eintracht Frankfurt of Germany, Brazil's SC Corinthians and Dutch club PSV Eindhoven emerged from the pack to qualify for the final four spot with both local sides to be completing in the 5th/6th placing match on coming Sunday at the Jalan Besar Stadium. SC Corinthians topped the Group B ladder on a clean sweep with two victories over their opponents with no goal conceded in the process (defeated NFA U15 7-0, defeated PSV Eind

NFA U15 0-7 Corinthians Corinthians (black jersey) outpowered NFA U15 Just two quick goals in less than 15 minutes into the game told us the difference between Corinthians and our NFA U15 boys in the 25th Canon Lion City Cup opener at the Jalan Besar Stadium. Fair to say that coach Nazri Nasir's boys did show some flashes from the early start, but the two quick goals that they conceded due to defensive lapses immediately rattled the nerves of the local teenagers. On the contrary, the Brazilians boys displayed a much composed composure with quick things coupled to their swift movement on and off the ball plays. NFA U15 had to deal constant with the Corinthians' swift plays With two notable chances that rocked the crossbar by the hosts, it was the samba boys that dictated the pace of the game and saw them walloped another five more goals in the second half to seal the match with a 7-0 shutout. Speaking to the media after the match, coach Nazri said:"We expec

Please plan your journey home I would only say my eyelids barely open when the League Cup match between Balestier Khalsa and Brunei DPMM proceed into second half. It wasn't a boring match to some extend with some few exchanges in between the two, but the only grump was the fact that second 45 only kicked off at 2235hrs. As all may have guessed it - the activation of the Lightning Warning System (LWS) had caused the match to be kicked off at 2125hrs (which on normal day would have seen a game finish by that). While let's not argue what the activation of the LWS would caused, since we all know it's safety at stake and there shall not be compromise on this aspect. However, some fine tunings should be considered to work around once the activation is on with one aspect would be the inconvenience to those at game without their own transport. With the public transport normally ceased at around or close to midnight, I wonder if there's any contingency measure, sho

Happier Times for Benett last year (File Picture) 37.5% - that is the percentage NOW of seeing the RHB Singapore Cup being retained within the boundary of the Republic. Following the completion of the first round, Tanjong Pagar United is the sole local representative in Pool B beside Global FC from the Philippines who will be joined by fellow countrymen Loyola Meralco Sparks (defeated Harimau Muda) and Brunei DPMM (thrashed Lao Police FC 4-0). Meanwhile, the likes of local sides Home United, Geylang International, Hougang United and Balestier Khalsa make up the Pool B. I am not sure how much has the landscape changed with last year's finalists being knocked out by their respective opponents. Defending Cup winners Warriors (won the honour as SAFFC last year) were knocked out of the way by Global FC last weekend on a 2-0 scoreline, while Tay Peng Kee's return to the Tampines Rovers' hot seat was marred by the defeat in the hands of Hougang United days earlier.
