Singapore's Team Knockout flew the Republic's flag high last Sunday when they won the Standard Chartered Trophy on Liverpool's hallowed Anfield turf.

They progressed to the final, where they drew 1-1 with a British team at full-time. Team Knockout, who were coached by ex-Liverpool manager Roy Evans, then kept their nerves to win 3-2 in the penalty shootout.

The Standard Chartered Trophy is an international five-a-side football tournament for clients and stakeholders of the bank across markets in Asia, Africa, Europe and the Middle East.

A total of eight international teams took part in this year's competition at Anfield.

The transfers were detected by both the police’s Anti-Scam Centre and Standard Chartered Bank on Jan 11, leading to a scam victim avoiding losses of $1.5 million.
