TopSkor Indonesia (TSI) U-16’s mission to win the 2026 Singa Cup title did not end as expected.

SKOR.id – TopSkor Indonesia (TSI) U-16’s mission to win the 2026 Singa Cup title had to end not as expected.

Not because they lost the battle until the final whistle sounded, the Yunus Muchtar squad’s struggle was actually stopped due to weather factors which forced the final match against Thailand’s representative, Khampaengphet, to not be able to continue.

The final match of Singa Cup 2026 which took place at Serangoon Stadium, Friday (7/11/2026) afternoon, actually still had nine minutes remaining in the second half.

At that time, TSI U-16 was trailing 0-1 from Khampaengphet. However, the team from Indonesia is trying to catch up by having a lot of momentum to equalize.

A number of golden opportunities were created by the TSI U-16 players. For example, two opportunities through Widi Yulianto and Derren Auriel’s kicks hit the goal post.

Unfortunately, TSI U-16’s efforts to equalize had to be stopped after the lightning warning sounded in the stadium.

This situation means that the match cannot continue for the safety of the players and related parties on the field.

After waiting some time for the rain to stop, it turned out that the match could not be played again. This is because the lightning warning signal continues to flash, indicating that the potential danger has not completely disappeared.

The Singa Cup 2026 committee has given time to wait for conditions to improve. However, the situation still makes it impossible to continue the match.

As a result, the force majeure clause was applied and the match was declared finished with a score of 0-1 in favor of Khampaengphet.

This decision is certainly a blow for TSI U-16 who have worked hard throughout the tournament.

Moreover, they actually still have a chance to catch up with the remaining match time.

The Singa Cup 2026 organizing committee also explained the reasons why the final match could not be continued.

“This is the final and you played very well, we gave you the opportunity to wait until 3 pm. But the situation did not improve,” he said.

“We also provided photo evidence that the officers saw on the map that lightning was approaching. Health is more important than football, because we can play football at any time.”

Despite the disappointing results in the final, TSI U-16 actually performed impressively since the Singa Cup 2026 Group C preliminary phase.

Yunus Muchtar’s team started the tournament with a narrow 1-0 win over Australia’s representative, Norbert Canons, on November 3 2026.

A day later, TSI U-16 again showed its sharpness by crushing India’s representatives, Conscient Sports Mumbai, with a landslide victory of 17-0.

On the same day, TSI U-16 also managed to close their journey in Group C with positive results after beating Malaysia’s representative, TSS Selangor, with a score of 3-0.

This series of wins ensured that the elite TopSkor League team passed the group phase with perfect points.

TSI U-16’s sharpness continued when they entered the knockout phase. They managed to beat the 1v1 Football Cup Malaysia with a score of 7-0.

Furthermore, TSI U-16 secured a place in the semifinals after defeating hosts Woodlands Warriors with a score of 2-0 on November 5 2026.

In the semifinals, TSI U-16’s struggle again produced sweet results. They successfully eliminated Thailand’s representative, BISP Cruzeiro, with a 2-0 win.

This impressive record can also be seen from the TSI U-16 defense line which only conceded once throughout the tournament.

Even though they failed to bring home the championship trophy, TSI U-16 still had proud individual achievements.

TSI U-16 striker, Widi Yulianto, managed to get an individual award after being selected as Best Player Singa Cup 2026.
