Draw the name of the game

It was Draw night on Friday and Saturday as Geylang United drew 1-1 Albirex Niigata (S) at Jalan Besar while Balestier Khalsa held Gombak United to a 0-0 draw at Toa Poyah.

In a way, it show either the lacked of ambition or the lacked of abilities of the Eagles and Bulls as they were presented with a chance to pull away from the rest of the pack to secure fourth spot but they could not do it.

For me, it is a bit of both as both Eagles and Bulls head coach tend to be too defensive minded thus instead of going for wins, they go for not losing.

That mean a packed defence and midfield with no interest to attack so even with great attackers like Tomko and Masrezwan for the Eagles and Agu and Farzul for the Bulls, they are wasted.

It is also no surprise that both their midfield lacked attacking midfielders with Koreans like Eagles Kim Jae Hong and Bulls Park Kang Jin being circle slotted in square peg.

Atsushi Shimono had scored for Albirex Niigata (S) and Rastislav Belicak reply for the Eagles.
