Singapore national football coach Bernd Stange has kept his faith in youngster Adam Swandi, including the 17-year-old in his 23-man squad for next month's AFC Asian Cup qualifier against Oman at the Jalan Besar Stadium.

There is, however, no place again for veterans Daniel Bennett and Fahrudin Mustafic as the German continues his focus on youth.

"It was not easy to finalise the squad but I am very pleased we have put together the team now," Stange said. "I am confident that these players have the capabilities to help the team achieve a good result against Oman."
