MilkLife Kickers finished runners-up in the Singa Cup 2026 Girls U14 category, level on nine points with champions Lion City Sailors but behind the hosts on goal difference.

VIVA – MilkLife Kickers had to settle for ending their Singa Cup 2026 Girls U14 campaign as runners-up. The Indonesian representatives could not hold on to top spot after Lion City Sailors recorded a big win in the last match on Friday (6 November 2026).

Lion City Sailors impressed by thrashing Australia’s South Coast Baptist College nine goals to nil. The result moved the Singapore team past MilkLife Kickers at the top thanks to a better goal difference.

MilkLife Kickers had led the standings after a perfect day two. Timo Scheunemann’s side earned two convincing wins, 8-0 over BMW of Singapore and 5-1 over Fremantle City FC of Australia.

MilkLife Kickers and Lion City Sailors both collected nine points from three wins. But Lion City Sailors’ higher goal tally gave them first place.

Lion City Sailors closed the competition with a goal difference of +32, from 35 goals scored and three conceded. MilkLife Kickers recorded +24 from 26 goals and only two conceded.

Although they could not bring the title home, MilkLife Kickers coach Timo Scheunemann said the team’s achievement is not decided only by the final position in the standings.

Timo hoped the experience of competing at international level would be extra motivation for the players to keep developing. He said Singa Cup is part of the process of finding and developing promising players who are hoped to one day strengthen Indonesia’s national team.

When it comes to winning, everyone wants to win. But for me what matters more is that after this Singa Cup the players are more motivated to keep training with focus to raise their level. Only then do we talk about results on the pitch, because what we are really doing here is looking for players with potential to develop later so they can become the backbone of the national team. Hopefully they can keep working diligently to raise their level of play.

MilkLife Kickers forward Albianca Raula shared a similar view. She said the competition at Singa Cup 2026 was more intense than her previous experience.
