Stags open lead at the top

Tampines Rovers have open up a lead at the top of the table after crushing Balestier Khalsa 5-0 at Jalan Besar.

Both Aleksandar Duric and Benoit Croissant scored a brace with Ahmad Fahmie contributing as he notched his first goal in over three years.

The two-time champions continue to show no ill-effect from their AFC Cup campaign as they had a tough match in midweek but they continued to set a relentless pace for the championship.

The Eastern giant have now collected 29 points from a possible 33 and no rivals have been able to keep pace.

The Warriors showcased that as last week the Choa Chu Kang team was second but fall to third now after being crushed 3-6 by Albirex Niigata (S) at Jalan Besar.

Shotaro Ihata scored four of those goals with Kazuki Kobayashi and Shimpei Sakurada also chipping in.

Replying for the Warriors was Mislav Karoglan, who chip in with two goals, and Ivan Jerkovic.

In another match played at Jalan Besar as well, Gombak United defeated Woodlands Wellington 1-0 with Kwon Jin Sung scoring the winner.
