The road to the AFF Hyundai Cup final got tougher for Singapore after being beaten 3-1 at home by Thailand in the semi-final's first leg on 15 August. Leading 2-0 at half-time, Thailand added another very early in the second half to take a commanding 3-0 lead. Ilhan Fandi pulled one back close to full-time but it was too late for the Lions to make any further impact on the scoreline. Both teams meet again on 18 August at the Rajamangala Stadim, Thailand.
