Toothless Lions in AFF Suzuki Cup


I have always wondered why I will sit and watch the Lions a.k.a the Singapore National Football team on TV.

They frustrate the commentators (and audience), make schoolboy errors you only see at void deck soccer and sometimes just give the impression that they could not care less.

Luckily for all Singaporeans, the Lions put up a more gutsy performance in the 2nd half to overturn a one goal deficit against Myanmar and win 2-1; anything less will see them all but likely kicked out of the tournament.

A last minute goal does little to mask the lacklustre performance from a Singapore side that looked lost and clueless in front of goal. For long periods in the match, the Burmese looked hungrier. The "white angels" as they are called had more heart than the Lions. What an irony.

Contrary to belief... Lions don't really bite. Meow...
