Khairul Amri still lethal even at 34

Khairul Amri's well taken goal against Brunei DPMM reminds us why he is well-regarded as one of Singapore's greatest marksman

He may be 34 and although Khairul Amri lacks the pace, he is still one of the most sure-footed finishers the Republic has ever produced in recent times.

Amri proved that he still has the quality to deliver when it matters most and this was clearly evident in Tampines Rovers' recent match against Brunei DPMM. Losing by two goals in Brunei, Tampines coach Gavin Lee decided to throw on Amri in the 60th minute, in the hope that it would be able to rescue his team from the jaws of defeat.
