Football: No international friendlies for Lions in lead-up to ASEAN Championships
Singapore's men's national football team will not play any friendly matches during the upcoming international windows in September and October. That's despite the Lions needing to prepare for the ASEAN Championships (AFF) in December. To prepare for the region's top football tournament, head coach Tsutomu Ogura is opting for closed-door training games. He said this approach will give his players more time in training and to bond. As a final tune-up for the AFF in November, Singapore will spar against Myanmar and Chinese Taipei at the National Stadium.
