Singapore’s hope of advancing to the final of the Netball Nations Cup hangs in the balance after suffering consecutive losses against Fiji and Botswana as they are now second from bottom in the six-team competition with just two points from their opening day 47-45 win against Ireland, and with two remaining matches to play.
Botswana dominated the game from start to finish with their aggressive play and physicality, pressuring their Singaporean opponents and restricting them to fewer than 10 goals in each quarter. Despite the hosts making several line-up changes throughout, they had no answers for Botswana. Both sides continued to press each other in the third quarter, and Ireland capitalised on shaky play from their opponents to hold a 38-34 advantage at the end of the quarter. Five consecutive goals near the end of the quarter saw the hosts overtake the lead 45-44 with three minutes of play left, as the crowd’s cheers got progressively louder each time the ball found the net.
