“My parents play football, my siblings play football, so naturally I also picked up the sport. I still remember there was once I followed my brother to his football game, I was so amazed by that experience. That very moment, I just turned to my dad and told him I wanted to play football too!”
“We also need people to have an opened mind and are willing to listen to the feedback and change for the better. I have met people who think that I could speak whatever I want just because I am the best. Absolutely no. All these are not for me. I am too old to enjoy all these. All the advices that I am giving from my experience are meant for the younger players that are coming up in the next 10 years. I am giving them the advices so that they can be more professional, they can have a better playing condition and environment, so that they can showcase a better “product” (futsal) to the fans going down to watch them play”

“Lots of upsets, plenty of miracles, and a handful of unforeseen; the FIFA World Cup 2022 had seen it all. Champions Argentina managed to leave behind their shock opening game defeat to Saudi Arabia and go on to win the tournament, but a few other giants could not follow suit. We now look at the 5 most disappointing teams who could not even make it past the group stage”
“It was the same bulk of nations who featured in the 2018 edition in Russia, with Qatar the only addition this year. And it also proved to be a much better showing of home support for the Asian nations, as 3 countries progressed to the knockout stage compared to only 1 four years ago – Japan.
It is also the first time that 3 Asian countries made it past the group stage, beating the record of 2 in 2010 and 2002. Let us look at each of the 6 countries’ journeys in the World Cup 2022 and how they fared”
“A total of 172 goals consisting of 21 headers, 14 penalties, 2 direct free-kicks and many other goals of variety, the World Cup 2022 Qatar is one that will be remembered for its spectacular goals and extraordinary upsets”
FULL PHOTO ALBUM – First stop for Borussia Dortmund Southeast Asia Tour 2022 as the German giant took on Singapore Premier League’s Lion City Sailors at Jalan Besar Stadium, Singapore.
“The level of Southeast Asia and in particular Singapore is improving with each passing year. Within this maelstrom that is Singapore Football, I believe I can contribute to its growth with my experience. I do think that this is a worthwhile league to be in and as time goes on, you can expect more international footballers featuring in the SPL”
“These initial years were also when Ueda began to establish himself as a distinct supporter. While most fans in the Stadium would be clapping loudly as a signal of support for the Japan national team, Ueda would be shouting and cheering at the top of his lungs. After national team fixtures, he would often find the national team players and meet them. He became a familiar figure for many Japanese national team stalwarts since the 1980s and has remained a cult hero ever since.”
“When I was young, I would watch Ultraman on the television on weekends and always thought that he was superb. Like ‘Leesaw’ (Teeratep Winothai), this gives me a nickname and helps people remember me as someone inspiring. When I travel for holidays, I even have fans coming up to me to take a photo together with that pose.”
Football fans in Singapore enjoy a tantalising battle between Premier League (PL) giants Liverpool and Crystal Palace for the inaugural Standard Chartered Singapore Trophy 2022 on 15 July 2022.
