In a tense and entertaining National 2nd Round Group B match yesterday afternoon at Lor Napiri, Bowen Secondary claimed a needed victory over Siglap Secondary School but were knocked out of the tournament on goal difference.

Goalkeepers from both sides capped excellent performances for their schools with some fine saves throughout the match until late into the 2nd half. Bowen's 1-0 win came courtesy of a late penalty won in the 75th minute by Bullets striker Muhd Zamani after he was hacked down by a Siglap defender while finding space for a shot in the penalty box. Fellow striker Aizal Murhamdani stepped up to calmly slot the ball below the body of the Siglap goalkeeper and send the Bowen supporters into a frenzy.

However, as news about SJI's 3-0 win over Chua Chu Kang Secondary trickled in, the smiles of the Bowen Bullets gradually turned into frowns after the match. Both victories by Bowen and SJI meant that all 3 teams, Siglap Sec, SJI and Bowen Sec were level on 6 points and the top 2 was decided by goal difference. Bowen Sec, having the most inferior goal difference of the three, had to miss out on the quarter-final stage.
