Singapore: Albirex Niigata FC (S) added another trophy to their haul this season after beating Brunei DPMM FC 4-1 in the Singapore Cup final at Jalan Besar Stadium on Saturday.
Albirex captain Wataru Murofushi led the way with a brace that sandwiched Adam Swandi’s strike, before Hiroyoshi Kamata added a fourth. Azwan Ali Rahman netted a late consolation goal for DPMM, who fell short in their bid to win the Cup for the first time.
The White Swans are the first team to win the Singapore Cup four times in a row, having first won it in 2015. They have also made a clean sweep of trophies for the third year running, having been crowned Singapore Premier League champions last month on top of defending the Community Shield earlier this year.
Earlier, Balestier Khalsa FC claimed the second runners-up spot after winning 5-4 on penalties over Home United FC. The match ended in a 2-2 draw at full time.
