White Swans fail to soar as title hopes fade

Diallo Mamadou 29', Sobrie Mazelan 66', Jordan Webb 76'
A brace from Yasuhiro Yamakoshi failed to prevent Hougang United from grabbing a famous victory over ten-men Albirex Niigata (S) to leave their title hopes hanging by a thread.
Second-placed Albirex Niigata (S) lost more ground in the S.League title race as they crashed to a 3-2 defeat at home to Hougang United, despite Yasuhiro Yamakoshi's double.
Following last week's 1-0 loss to Balestier Khalsa, the hosts could not afford to falter here, but goals from Mamadou Diallo, Sobrie Mazelan and Jordan Webb secured victory for Hougang and deal a potentially fatal blow to Albirex's title hopes.

Match Preview: Albirex Niigata (S) vs Hougang United
By OPOD
Jia Hui Chicharito
After Tampines’ 3-0 victory over the Courts Young Lions last night, Albirex Niigata (S) are now in intense pressure to win tonight’s game against Hougang United to keep up the pace with the Stags.
The White Swans are now eight points away from the top with four games to go and if they are to stand any chance of wrestling the title away from Tampines, this is a must-win game for them especially with an upcoming potential title decider next Wednesday.
The Albirex of 2012 while not as swashbuckling as the one last year, have still managed to grind out results and that is the reason why they are currently sitting in second place in the table. One of which will be their 2-1 win over tonight’s opponents early this season at the Hougang Stadium.

Albirex last minute breaks Hougang hearts

Jordan Webb 90'
ANFC 2
Kunihiro Yamashita 55’, Norihiro Kawakami 90’
Hougang United suffered heartbreak against Albirex Niigata when the Japanese side scored a winner in the last minute of injury time, right after they had equalized in the first minute of injury time.
Both sides came into the game on the sixth and seventh spot in the table with the Cheetahs leading the White Swans by a point. That said, it did not prevent Hougang from adopting a soak-and-strike strategy.

Albirex Niigata (Singapore) were crowned champions of the League Cup 2011 tournament after beating Hougang United in the grand final at Jalan Besar Stadium on Saturday evening.
Yoshito Matsushita’s save to deny Jordan Webb in the final regulation attempt of the penalty shootout was enough to clinch the Japanese side victory by a 5-4 margin, after 120 minutes of football had left both sides exactly where they had started.
Despite the lack of goals, Albirex impressed on the occasion with a team display that was markedly different from what they had often shown this season, reflecting a newfound maturity against a firmly aggressive Hougang outfit.
