Near the end of the match, Ika found the net again. Her third goal completed her hat-trick and ensured MilkLife Strikers took home a 6-1 win.

He also explained that the high-pressure strategy applied by the opponents actually gave his team the chance to exploit the empty space in the defensive area. The players’ ability to overcome the tension of the first match also earned his praise.
The opposing team pressed high, and from there we managed to exploit the space behind their back line. Not only that, I am also happy the players could overcome their nerves on the first day.
Jacksen F. Tiago
What is more, we managed to win against a strong team like Lion City Sailors. For me, being able to come here and get this playing experience is already very valuable.

Preparation before leaving for Singapore was also seen as having an influence on the squad’s cohesion. The players, who come from different team backgrounds, went through intensive training to build teamwork.
