Back Passt With Ras

We speak to Ignatius Ang about his professional football career - where he made his big break, the experience of being part of Lions XII and his first spell at Balestier Khalsa.

We then ask him about the difference at the club between his first spell and now, if the team could be pushing for glory this season and if coaching could be an option for him at the end of his career. 

We round it up by asking if he is satisfied with the number of minutes played so far this season, his and the team's ambition for the season.
