Former Lions captain Nazri Nasir has been appointed to take charge of the Singapore national team for the AIRMARINE Cup 2019, a four-nation ‘A’ international friendly tournament.
Other than hosts Malaysia, the other teams taking part are Afghanistan and Oman.
Singapore will face Malaysia on Wednesday 20 March, while Oman and Afghanistan will meet in the earlier match of the day.
The third-placing match and final will be played on Saturday 23 March.
Former international Noh Rahman will assist Nazri for the tournament.
“It is a dream and an honour to be able to lead the Lions for the AIRMARINE Cup 2019. I am familiar with our players, having worked with them in different capacities including in Lions XII. While our Under-22 players will be playing in the 2020 Asian Football Confederation Under-23 qualifiers, we have called up players whom I believe will be vital in our success in the tournament. We’re playing our first game against Malaysia and we will play our hearts out for our country,” said Nazri.
