Balestier Khalsa Under-17s coach Ali Imran Lomri "apologises to everyone" for his actions.
SINGAPORE – An ill-tempered Singapore Youth League match between Balestier Khalsa and the Lion City Sailors on Aug 24 has resulted in their coaches being disciplined by the Football Association of Singapore .
An FAS review of the incident found that both coaches “acted in a manner unbecoming of their roles as ambassadors of their respective clubs and the SYL”. He added: “As an organisation, we are committed to ensuring that professionalism and respect remain at the forefront of the sport, especially in competitions designed to nurture the next generation of football talent.
The 48-year-old told ST on Sept 24: “I shouldn’t have reacted, but I just snapped. I reflected on what I did, and I was ashamed and disgusted with myself.
