5 players fined

Five footballers were fined for staying up late during their botched AFF Suzuki Cup campaign in Hanoi.

Team manager Eugene Loo confirmed that the five were caught playing card games in a player's hotel room at about 1am on Dec 6 - hours after the light out orders were issued.

The team had just beaten Myanmar 2-1 but there was an important match-up against Vietnam in another 48 hours.

All five footballers, not named, pay up their fines of S$500.
