NAYPYITAW: Singapore Under-23 football coach Aide Iskandar admitted that his strikers need to be sharper in front of goal when they take on Malaysia in their final SEA Games Group A match at the Zeyar Thiri Stadium on Sunday.

The Young Lions top the table after collecting seven points from three matches but have only scored four goals – three of which were against Brunei (2-0) and a 10-man Laos team (1-1).
