Home United's Shahril Ishak (red jersey) being tackled by Hafiz Osman, as arch-rivals Singapore Armed Forces FC and Home squared off in the inaugural Singapore Charity Shield at the Jalan Besar Stadium yesterday.
SAFFC, last season's Double winners, defeated the league runners-up 5-4 in a penalty shoot-out, after the match ended 1-1 in normal time.
In the 69th minute, Shahril burst down the left and squared the ball for Kengne Ludovick to give Home the lead.
But SAFFC drew level in the 88th minute when Ashrin Shariff won a penalty, which he duly converted.
The match, the curtain-raiser to the 2008 S-League which begins today, drew 4,544 fans.
