Sea Games Soccer
Singapore win the Bronze medal after their 5-0 thrashing of Vietnam but it should be at least a silver in my view. If only they were to beat Laos in the opening match, they would have avoided Thailand at least until the final. But reality is that Singapore lost 3-0 in the semi-final against Thailand and managed to salvage a consolation of a bronze medal with a five-star showing against Vietnam. Singapore at last manage to win a medal in soccer for the first time since 1995. That is a drough that stretches through 12 years. But the positive things is that Singapore manage to qualify from the group stage for the first time since 1999 ever since that year that soccer was changed to only allow players under 23 years of age to participate.
