Singapore will be allowed to call up two senior players for the South-east Asia (SEA) Games at the Nov 30-Dec 11 Games in the Philippines. This comes after a change in the ruling last month by this year's organisers listed that "a maximum of two players born before 1 Jan 1997 are eligible to participate".
Since 2001, the SEA Games football competition has been a U-23 or U-22 event.
It remains to be seen if Singapore U-22 coach, Fandi Ahmad will take advantage of this ruling as he now has the option of calling the likes of Hariss Harun, Hasan Sunny and Safuwan Baharudin.
