Singapore made it two wins out of two at the Ho Chi Minh
City International Tournament when they beat Turkmenistan 4-2 at the Thong Nhat
Stadium.
A first half double by Aleksandar Duric and second half strikes by Masrezwan Masturi and Khairul Amri sealed a comfortable win for the Lions in a match they largely dominated from start to finish.
Duric had two back to back gilt edged chances in the 30th but shot straight at the goal keeper both times and Agu hit the post after dribbling past the Turkmenistan defence.
Agu came closest again after tearing through the static defence and goalkeeper only to see his goal bound shot cleared of the line.
Duric opened the scoring in the ninth minute after trapping a long ball from captain Noh Rahman and rifling a right foot shot into the top corner.
Turkmenistan equalised five minutes later through a penalty after Hassan Sunny fouled an on coming Turkmenistan forward in the area and up stepped Berdy Shamuradov to slot in the penalty.
Duric got the vital second goal and his seventh goal for Singapore as he finished off a move started by Casmir and Shahril Ishak in the 38th minute as Singapore headed into the break with a well deserved lead.
On the hour mark, Masturi beat the offside trap and clipped in Singapore’s third over the on rushing goalkeeper.
Amri got his ninth international goal in the 77th minute to give Singapore a three goal cushion.
Turkmenistan got their second goal of the game after a swift counter attack left the Lions’ defense scrambling and striker Guvanchmuhammet Ovekov easily scored from close range.
Coach Radojko Avramovic was happy with the result.
"We played well and created many chances in today’s game especially in the first half but because of good goalkeeping and the players’ eagerness to score, we weren’t able to increase the score line," he told the Singapore FA's official site.
