Ya like when Thailand staged a similar walk-out when the Malaysian ref awarded the penalty last year? Singapore always seem to be the centre of controversy haha, and always on the 'winning side'if u know wat i mean. Anyway, here's my player ratings for the Singapore side:
Lionel Lewis - 7.0 Did not have much to do but could have done better with a few of Myanmar's crosses in the 1st half, although he did excellently with the same crosses in the 2nd half, punching them away. A rather quiet game, will have to be on his toes against Indonesia though.
Noh Rahman - 5.5 Not a good performance for the skipper. Lost his man one too many times and was at fault for the opening goal. Lucky not to be punished more than once. Needs to find the consistency that has cemented his place as first-choice right-back for the past few years
Baihakki Khaizan - 6.5 Was left for dead whenever Soe Myat Min went for the through-ball from his teammate but in truth he wasn't unduly troubled and was absolutely solid in the air. An efficient, but not spectacular performance.
Precious Emuejeraye - 6.5 Much the same as his defensive partner, although he did hesitate to clear once or twice
Daniel Bennett - 6.0 Did well getting forward, putting in a few good crosses and he also won most of the aerial balls. But in the 2nd half, he was eaten alive by the lively Myanmarese left winger, who had been the man of the 1st half for Myanmar.
Mustafic Fahrudin - 6.5 An efficient performer too but was unlucky to shown a soft yellow card. Sometimes too casual on the ball but cleaned up in front of his defence well enough.
Shi Jiayi - 5.5 Quite a few misplaced passes and wasn't at his best. Set-piece deliveries were up to mark though, and it was his corner delivery that caused Agu Casmir's first goal.
Muhammad Ridhuan - 6.0 Quiet on the right flank and did not see too much of the ball. Did well on the few occasions he did receive the ball, and tracked back to defend as well. But he faded a little in the middle of the 2nd half and was replaced by Isa Halim.
John Wilkinson - 7.0 2 assists and nearly a goal summed up his evening. He was guilty of misplacing the odd pass in the 2nd half though, but a hard worker throughout.
Noh Alam Shah - 6.5 Scored a goal on 46 seconds and led the line well in the 1st half. His best work was off the ball, as he constantly drew defenders out to the flanks to create space for the likes of John Wilkinson and Shi Jiayi. Faded in the 2nd half, due most likely to his limited playing time and was substituted for Indra.
Agu Casmir - 8.5 Scored twice and was the best player on the pitch, drawing defenders out to the flanks like his strike partner and also contributed a few fine passes and crosses. Sharp as a nail, he terrorised and crucified the Myanmar defence, although he wasted a golden chance to score in the dying minutes of the 1st half, his improvised shot going high. Still, man of the match and most deservedly so.
