The Protectors are now only seven-point behind leader Etoile FC and in the 3-round format of the S-league, they still have a double header with the French side so closing that gap is not as difficult as foreseen.
The winner came from defender Ismail Yunos and it should bring great joy to the Singapore international who has been recovering for the best part of the last 2 years.
Over the weekend, Balestier Khalsa defeated Woodlands Wellington 2-1 at the Woodlands Stadium.
Shahri Musa had scored first for the Rams before a second half fightback by the Tigers with goals from Paul Cunningham and Rivaldo Costa.
While the next night after the Home-Tampines game, Sengkang Punggol collected their second points in as many games after a 2-2 draw with the Young Lions at the Hougang Stadium.
Khairul Nizam and Fazli Ayob have given the Cubs the lead twice but were pinned back by goals from Farizal Basri and Sobrie Mazelan.
