It all seemed promising for Safuwan Baharudin 30 minutes into his team’s A-League clash with reigning Asian club champions Western Sydney Wanderers at the Pirtek Stadium in Sydney yesterday.
The 23-year-old Singapore football star struck a classic poacher’s goal for Melbourne City when he nodded in a 28th-minute header past ex-Liverpool reserve goalkeeper Dean Bouzanis — his second goal for the club since joining on a three-month loan last month.
But it went downhill for Safuwan and City after that, as they ended up losing 3-2 after conceding two late goals.
Worse, Safuwan, who played the whole 90 minutes, is now a doubt for City’s next game because of a head injury.
