The Lions started 2007 on a high note when they retained the Asean Football Championship by defeating arch rival Malaysia in the semi-final and then favourite Thailand in the final. To top it off, they achieved the largest win in their history by beating laos 11-0 in the group stages.

Their impressive form continued as they beat Palestine in the first round of the FIFA World Cup 2010 ASEAN Qualifiers. Even the retirement of captain Aide Iskandar just before the second round of qualifiers (first leg) against Tajikstan did not faze the Lions as they triumphed 2-0 at home. They then drew 1-1 in the second leg to qulaify for the third round of qualifiers for the first time in Singapore's history.

Rounding off what had been a good year, the Under-23 team then claimed a bronze at SEA Games in Thailand. It was Singapore's first football medal from the Games in many years.

With so many breakthrough performances, it is no wonder that the Lions have been named Singapore's Team of the Year (Team Sport).
