Late strikes land Thais 2-0 win in S’pore-Thailand friendly

BY SHANJAYAN MUNIAPPAN

SINGAPORE — Singapore lost 2-0 to Thailand in a friendly football match in Korat today (March 26) to mark 50 years of bilateral relations between the two countries.

Late strikes from Suttinun Phukhom after 86 minutes and Pokklaw A-Nan’s injury time goal gave the reigning Asean champions the win.


Prior to kick off, a minute’s silence was observed as a mark of respect to the late Mr Lee Kuan Yew, Singapore’s first Prime Minister who died on Monday at the age of 91. Both teams also donned black armbands during the match.

Singapore’s next match is a friendly against Guam at the Jalan Besar Stadium on Tuesday (March 31).
