singapore surprisingly decent and organized

not much different than a u16 north korean team

open goal missed after nice run on the right wing

dominating possession and territory but only 1 clear cut chance so far

some nice work down the right wing results in another chance at an empty net after a cut back
this time oz scores

Floodgates open.

Double air swing.

Asian commentator with every right to laugh.

1-1 at half time. singapore scored from half way

Keeper was outside his 18 yard box when the opposition had the ball at nearly halfway. Wtf?

think that was singapores first shot from 60 yards out
cruel game

performace maybe slightly stronger but well down on last year still
some air swings and an open goal miss

Just watching the game from overseas and i'm convinced when i saw this group last group it appears they have gone backwards, they are not playing in the same level as saw them when they thrashed Singapore 8-2.

Has the focus on the FFA COE mean they appear to be over-coached and therefore taken away their creativity from the players, whilst last year when they together they were with their clubs they looked more sharper and the execution was much better but now this?

Yep, 2 for Singapore.

I need a loop of that defending with the Harlem Globetrotters theme playing.

There shouldn't even be a COE. FFA should cast their net wider and put their resources into supporting A-League and where possible NPL academies. Players come from clubs.

WOOF!!! what a strike for Aus' 2nd Goal!

Atrocious defending, defending like statues.

Had to go 2-1 down before they started to play with a bit of passion.

Oh, Sweet Jesus, it's falling apart for Singapore at the moment.

I think I like this commentator

How did they get two goals in the time it took to get one beer? :shock:

What a hit from the No.10 he has a very nice left peg

All of a sudden its 3-2!

Definitely better than Bash.

The No.10 for the joeys has that ability to go past players and hit a strike from distance, if he can work on his final pass he could become an excellent player.

He has changed the game for the joeys all of a sudden.

Well done Brook staying on the ball.

It was a bit scrappy but he did well. 4-2

Cap him?
I mean, talented players get capped at 16/17

Another goal from the same player, who says these kids don't have any fighting spirit....

Lachlan brook is the kid that stood out for me last year. If memory serves me he is a year younger than the other kids

Brook really turned the game on its head here... good through balls in lead up play and 2 goals himself..
Looks a clear stand out in this age group at this stage

Brook still only 14 years old according to wikipedia
