Tatsuma Yoshida must fix Singapore's leaky defence
Singapore's defence must remain watertight if the Lions are to secure a win over Palestine...Tatsuma Yoshida knows Singapore will have their hands full when they take on Palestine later at the Jalan Besar Stadium, in the Lions' second group match of their 2022 World Cup qualifying campaign.
Palestine pulled off a shock 2-0 win over Uzbekistan to top Group D and are now the current table toppers.
Yoshida's charges earned a point in their previous game against Yemen as they drew 2-2. It was the Japanese's first competitive game in charge and while some applauded him for playing attacking football - the draw ultimately felt like a defeat as Singapore had several chances to win the game.
