Singapore's Football Team Prepares for ASEAN Championship

Singapore's football team had a tough training camp in Japan to get ready for the ASEAN Hyundai Cup.

Coach Gavin Lee said the team played matches in Japan to prepare for the tournament.

He said the team had to suffer to get better.

The team's goal is to do well in the ASEAN Football Federation championship.

The team lost two games in Japan, but this was part of their preparation.

Coach Lee said they didn't go to Japan for easy games.

The team wanted to be challenged and learn from their experiences.

The team will play against Cambodia, Timor-Leste, Indonesia, and Vietnam in the tournament.

They have a busy schedule with three games in eight days.

Coach Lee said every game is important in a tournament.

The team's first game is against Cambodia on Friday.

Then they play Timor-Leste and Vietnam in the following games.

The ASEAN Hyundai Cup will run from July 24 to August 26.

There are two groups in the tournament, and Singapore is in Group A.

This year is the 30th anniversary of the ASEAN Championship.

Thailand has won the championship the most times, and Singapore has won it four times.

The tournament is special for local football fans, including Coach Lee.

Coach Lee knows how much the tournament means to the fans.

He also knows that other countries are getting better, so it's a challenge.

In the last tournament, Singapore made it to the semi-finals but lost to Vietnam.

Coach Lee said the tournament showed the team they could compete with other countries.

The team has improved since then and qualified for the Asian Cup.

Only a few Southeast Asian countries will be in the Asian Cup.

Doing well in the ASEAN Championship can help Singapore keep improving.

The team wants to keep getting better and building on their success.

The ASEAN Championship will be on TV and online from July 24 to August 26.
