Young Lions v SAFFC 0-2 (Fazrul Nawaz, Mislav Karoglan) 2,534
Hougang United v Woodlands Wellington 1-0 (Mamadou Diallo) 1,547
Balestier Khalsa v Home United 1-1 (Lim Young Woo; Sufian Anuar) 1,330
Albirex Niigata v Tanjung Pagar 5-0 (Ihata, Matsui, Saito 2, Yokuyama) 1,928
Geylang United v Etoile 0-2 (Belouet, Kaabi) 1,240

Good starts to the season are always important and for the leading contenders for SLeague 2011 it was doubly so as they all faced tricky away games. So it's advantage SAFFC and Etoile as they secured maximum points while Home United will be well peeved not to have secured three points away to Balestier Khalsa
Biggest surprise though was Albirex Niigata thumping new boys Tanjung Pagar, hitting five without reply leaving them top of the league after,um, one game. But will they be there come the end of the season, eh? Eh?
