The Lions after a nervous and disjointed start,
went ahead through Itimi Dickson. The ball was swung
in from the right by Indra Sahdan
and with both goalkeeper Hong Visokra & Sun Sampratna failing to take command of the situation, the winger
ghosted in at the left hand post where the ball fortuitously connected with the
21-year-old’s face.
Visorka was substituted 37 minutes into the first
half but a similar fate befell his replacement Ouc Mic in the second half.
One minute after coming on for the ineffectual Agu Casmir, Khairul Amiri made it 3-0. Shahril Ishak played a neat one-two with Indra
on the edge of the box and whipped the ball across the area and into the path
of the
Khairul Amri could have
doubled his tally lat in the game as he missed an open goal after Mic had charged out to block Dickson at the edge of the
penalty area while the Cambodian custodian did well to save Muhammad Ridhuan’s shot following the winger’s lung-bursting run
from his own half as Cambodia restricted Singapore to 3 goals.
