Singapore squad for AFC U19 Championship 2018 qualifiers confirmed
SINGAPORE, 1 NOVEMBER 2017: The Football Association of Singapore today announced the Under-18 National Team squad for the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Under-19 Championship 2018 qualifiers in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. The matches will be held from 4-8 November 2017.
The team, with an average age of 17.65, will be facing Japan, Thailand and Mongolia in Group I. The squad includes two 16-year-olds – Muhammad Nur Adam Bin Abdullah and Muhammad Syahadat Bin Masnawi.
Head Coach of the Under-18 National Team Christophe Chaintreuil said: “Our team will be looking to build on the experience at the ASEAN Football Federation (AFF) Under-18 Championship to better our showing at these qualifiers. We met Thailand in the AFF tournament and are well aware of what they are capable of. Japan is an even stronger team, and while we don’t have much information on Mongolia”s team, we know that there are no easy international games.
“Unfortunately, we will not have the services of Ikhsan Fandi, Elliot Ng and Amirul Haikal due to their other commitments. However, we have Saifullah Akbar and Benjamin Davis whom we believe will be assets to the team. We will do our best and hope for the support of the fans back home.”
Please see below for the fixtures as well as the Under-18 National Team squad list.
