Playing at home, the U22 Thailand team displayed fast-paced, disciplined, and modern football. They organized fluid short passes, transitioned quickly, and launched direct attacks. They controlled possession, applied constant pressure, and quickly pushed Singapore into a defensive position. However, Thailand's only drawback was a lack of sharpness in the first half, with many opportunities going to waste in front of Singapore's goal.

After the break, Thailand's pressure immediately made a difference. In quick succession during the first half of the second half, the U22 Thailand team scored three goals thanks to their agile movement, ability to occupy space, and decisive finishing.

With the game already decided, the home team played more comfortably. In the last 30 minutes, they maintained pressure, creating several more clear-cut opportunities. If their strikers had been more clinical, Thailand could have easily won by a much larger margin than 3-0.

The superior physical fitness, technical skill, and tactical organization show that the U22 Thailand team is in stable form at the right time. With two consecutive wins in the group stage, the host team has not only made its mark with results, but also with a convincing style of play and the composure of a top contender for the championship. The victory against Singapore is the clearest affirmation of their ambitions at the SEA Games 33.
