Singapore are assured of a semi-final spot in the SEA Games football tournament, following a 1-1 draw with rivals Malaysia on Sunday evening.
Afiq Yunos opened the scoring after 61 minutes, firing home from close range after central-defensive partner Safuwan Baharudin’s header had come back off the post.
But just as it looked like the Young Lions would seal top spot in Group A, substitute Rozaimi Abdul Rahman scored with a stoppage-time free kick to keep Malaysia in pole position to join them in the semi-finals at the expense of Vietnam.
The late goal also means that Aide Iskandar’s side will have to wait on the result of Tuesday’s clash between Malaysia-Vietnam to see if they progress as group winners or runners-up.
