AFC Cup: Tampines Rovers FC 0-0 Bengaluru FC - 5 talking points

Bengaluru FC
Bengaluru FC qualified for the AFC Cup semi-finals after a 0-0 draw in Singapore

#3 Tampines’ big names went missing again in attack

Jermaine Pennant

Singapore fans had high expectations from Jordan Webb and Jermaine Pennant but the duo let the team down badly in both legs. The Stags have now failed to score in their last 3 encounters and offered nothing going forwards on the night.

Although the Pennant-Webb duo did start off brightly, they were easily dealt with by the Bengaluru defense as the game progressed. Webb especially was poor, often losing possession in the final third and picking poor passes.

The USA man also got booked just before the first half which added to his misery. Pennant too, cut a lonely figure on the night and was just unable to have any sort of impact on the game. The duo was also poor in the final third missing a couple of great chances to give Tampines a lead.
