Stags Make Hard Work Of Lions
It's not been the best of starts for SLeague champions Tampines Rovers but they are slowly dragging themselves back up to the top part of the table. Coming from behind and needing an own goal to overcome Young Lions may not be the chosen method of securing three points but that's what they had to do last night but they won't be grumbling too much.
Tampines scored first when Anaz Hadee put through his own goal to give Young Lions the lead. Tampines scored again but this time at the right end through Jamil Ali half way through the second half and moments later Jonathon Toto, Young Lions leading scorer with five goals, gave the Stags the lead at the Clementi Stadium.
That win moved them up to 4th with two foreign teams leading the table.
1 - DPMM 10 7 2 1 21-9 23
2 - Harimau Muda 11 7 2 2 19-9 23
3 - Balestier Khalsa 10 6 3 1 12-6 21
4 - Tampines Rovers 11 6 2 3 21-11 20
Funny game, eh?
