UNDER-20 NATIONAL TEAM SQUAD FOR MAURITIUS FRIENDLY ANNOUNCED
SINGAPORE, 10 MARCH 2017: The Football Association of Singapore (FAS) today announced the 20-strong squad – with an average age of 18.4 – for the Under-20 National Team’s friendly against Mauritius Under-21 National Team on 11 March at the New George V Stadium in Mauritius.
The match will kick off at 3.00pm local time (7.00pm Singapore time) and is part of the activities to commemorate Mauritius’ 49th Independence Day which falls on 12 March 2017.
“The game against Mauritius will be the first international friendly that the Under-20 National Team will be playing, and we have called up a good mix of club and non-club players – such as Amirul Hakim who plays in Garena Young Lions, and Joseph Goh who plays for Singapore Polytechnic but is not registered with any club,” said Under-20 National Team Head Coach Fandi Ahmad.
Said midfielder Amirul Hakim: “I am thankful to have been given the opportunity to be part of the Under-20 team for this international friendly. Playing Mauritius in this team presents a different set of challenges from playing in the Garena Young Lions, and I am eager to prove myself through this friendly.”
Added Coach Fandi: “I am very excited about this opportunity for the boys to play an international friendly with Mauritius, which has a fast and strong team. We are not worried about the results; what is more important is the boys’ improvement and to see if they can play at the highest level.”
