MilkLife Kickers recorded a positive result in their participation at the international Singa Cup 2026 tournament.
SINGAPORE – The Indonesian girls’ football team in the Girls U14 category ended the competition as runners-up after competing against several teams from various countries.
The achievement came from impressive performances throughout the matches. MilkLife Kickers collected nine points from three wins, scoring 26 goals and conceding only two.
Even so, the chance of the title finally slipped away because Lion City Sailors were more productive. The hosts sealed a 9-0 win over South Coast Baptist College on Friday (6/11/2026).
That result gave Lion City Sailors nine points, the same as MilkLife Kickers. But a better goal difference put the Singapore side first with +32, while the Indonesian team was second with +24.
Before the final standings were confirmed, MilkLife Kickers showed their dominance by beating BMW 8-0 and Fremantle City FC 5-1. Those two wins strengthened their position in the race for the title.
Behind the runners-up finish, MilkLife Kickers coach Timo Scheunemann pays more attention to the development of the players’ abilities.
In his view, Singa Cup 2026 is not just a stage to chase wins, but a chance for young Indonesian players to gain experience of international competition.
Timo hopes the players will be more motivated to improve the quality of their play through disciplined and continuous training.
He also sees the competition as part of the process of finding potential talent who can later be developed to strengthen Indonesia’s national team.
The experience of playing in Singapore is therefore expected to become a foundation for the players to improve before stepping up to higher competitions.
Timo previously also led Indonesia Garuda Pertiwi to runner-up at the Srikandi Merdeka Cup 2026.
