Lions beaten 7-1 by Morocco ‘A’
Singapore were beaten 7-1 by Morocco 'A' in an unofficial friendly match in Dubai last night.

They represent Morocco at the African Nations Championship - not to be confused with the African Nations Cup - and have won the last two editions of the tournament, in 2018 and 2020.
The match was part of the Lions' preparations for the Dec 5-Jan 1 Asean Football Federation Suzuki Cup, which will be held in the Republic. Nazrul Nazari scored the Lions' consolation goal in the 88th minute.
