Pemergian Sang Legenda – Mohamed Noh Hussein (1954–2021)
Kami ingin mengucapkan takziah kepada keluarga Allahyarham Mohamed Noh Hussein.
Legenda bola sepak Singapura meninggal dunia pagi tadi setelah mengalami serangan jantung pada 18hb September.
Allahyarham, yang lebih dikenali dengan panggilan Mat Noh di kalangan peminatnya, pernah mewarnai kancah bola sepak tanah air pada era 70-an sewaktu Singapura beraksi dalam pertandingan Piala Malaysia. Mat Noh berada dalam skuad Singapura yang menewaskan Pulau Pinang 3 – 2 di perlawanan akhir untuk menjuarai Piala Malaysia pada tahun 1977.
Bersama pasukan Singapura, Allahyarham juga pernah menentang musuh tradisi – Malaysia. Antaranya adalah kemenangan 1–0 ke atas Harimau Malaya dalam perlawanan Pra-Piala Dunia 1978 Kumpulan 1 Asia yang diadakan pada 6 March 1977 di Singapura. Mat Noh menjaringkan gol kemenangan melalui sepakan penalti yang disaksikan oleh 60,000 penonton. Tendangannya mengelirukan penjaga gol Malaysia, R. Arumugam yang merebahkan badannya ke arah bertentangan.
Terima kasih sang legenda atas segala pengorbanan dan sumbangan dalam dunia bola sepak. Semoga roh Allahyarham Mohamed Noh Hussein ditempatkan bersama orang-orang yang beriman.

Legasi Lagenda would like to extend our condolences to the family of the late Mohamed Noh Hussein.
The Singaporean football legend passed away this morning after suffering a heart attack on September 18.
Famously known as Mat Noh among his fans, the late football player used to colour his country’s football scene in the 1970s, when Singapore played in the Malaysia Cup. Mat Noh was in the squad that defeated Penang 3 – 2 in the final match to win the 1977 Malaysia Cup.
With the Singapore team, Mat Noh had also gone up against their traditional enemy, Malaysia. Among them was the 1–0 victory over Harimau Malaya in the 1978 Group 1 Asian Pre-World Cup match, which was held on March 6, 1977 in Singapore. Mat Noh scored the winning goal with a penalty kick that was witnessed by 60,000 spectators. His skilful kick confused Malaysian goalkeeper R. Arumugam, who threw his body in the opposite direction.
Thank you to the football legend for all of his sacrifices and contributions to the world of football. May his soul be placed among the faithful.
