Daniel Mark Bennett (* 7. Januar 1978 in ) ist ein singapurischer Fußballnationalspieler. Er wird zurzeit als Abwehrspieler eingesetzt.

Bennett took up Singaporean citizenship in September 2002 under the Foreign Sports Talent Scheme to play international football for Singapore.[1] With 142 caps for Singapore, he currently holds the national record for the most international matches played.[2]

Frühe Karriere und S.League-Debüt

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Im Alter von 12 Jahren wurde er ausgewählt um beim FAS Milo Scheme, für talentierte junge Fußballer, teilzunehmen.[3] Drei Jahre später wurde er dann von Tanjong Pagar United gedraftet. Dies gab ihm die Möglichkeit mit diesem Team zu trainieren bevor er Singapur verließ um sein Tertiärstudium in Englang weiter zu verfolgen.[4] 1999 kehrte er dann nach Singapur zurück, in der Hoffnung dort eine Fußballprofikarriere hinzulegen. Der damalige Trainer vom Balestier Central FC (dem heutigen Balestier Khalsa) P. N. Sivaji gab ihm dann auch dort die Möglichkeit in einem Klub der S. League zu spielen. Im Mai 2000 zog es ihn dann weiter zu seinem ehemaligen Klub Tanjong Pagar United.[5]

Having played as a midfielder for 15 years, his defining career shift to defence came when coach Tohari Paijan played him as a centre-back in the absence of regular stopper Lim Tong Hai in a league match.[6] Recognition of his performances came when he was selected in the Singapore selection that faced Manchester United and Liverpool in a couple of high-profile friendly matches, and culminated in a S.League Player of the Year award.[7][8]

Die Zeit bei Wrexham

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Bradford City manager Jim Jefferies was impressed with Bennett and offered him a trial at the Yorkshire club.[9] On 8 February 2002, Wrexham manager Denis Smith signed him on a short-term contract til the end of the 2001-02 Football League.[10] Although it is not known how much Wrexham had paid to secure the deal, the club's fans paid money to ensure the club could secure Bennett's signature.[11] He made his league debut against Port Vale on 6 March 2002, partnering Trinidad & Tobago international Dennis Lawrence in the heart of defence. He was assessed as "enjoying a remarkable start, looking composed at the back and reading the game superbly" by the fans, who had contributed money to sign the player.[12][13] Bennett made over 20 appearances for the Welsh side but with the Welsh side 4th from bottom in the league, relegation was confirmed at the end of the season.[11]

Bennett made a brief return to the S.League in 2002, playing 11 games for Singapore Armed Forces during their title-winning season.[14]

He returned to Wrexham in the 2002-03 season.[11] His second spell was more successful, making 21 appearances, including 3 League Cup games as he helped the club win the FAW Premier Cup and clinch promotion to the Second Division.[15][16] Bennett was offered new terms by Wrexham at the end of the season but chose to reject the contract to return to Singapore to improve his chances of featuring regularly for the national team.[17]

Rückkehr in die S.League

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Amid interest from Home United, Tampines Rovers and Woodlands Wellington after his Wales stint, Bennett signed for defending champions Singapore Armed Forces in mid-2003.[18]

Zeit bei Woodlands Wellington

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

He moved to ambitious Woodlands Wellington in 2005, joining his international colleagues Agu Casmir, Itimi Dickson, Goh Tat Chuan and Masrezwan Masturi.[19] Bennett led the team to 3rd place in the 2005 S.League, and 2nd and 3rd placing in the 2005 and 2006 Singapore Cup respectively.

Rückkehr zum SAFFC

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

After two seasons with the Rams, Bennett rejoined Singapore Armed Forces for a second time, achieving the S.League and Singapore Cup double in 2007 and 2008.

In the 2007 Singapore Cup final won by Singapore Armed Forces on 25 November, Bennett was involved in a clash with Tampines Rovers' Noh Alam Shah, a fellow Singapore national team player towards the end of the match. Noh Alam Shah kneed Bennett in the head in a tussle for the ball and after being dragged away by his team-mates, returned and kicked Bennett in the head.[20] Bennett was knocked unconscious and had to be taken to hospital while Alam Shah was sent off by referee Abas Daud.[21] The incident resulted in Alam Shah receiving a 12-month global ban which was reduced to 7 months on appeal.[22][23][24]

Bennett was handed the club's captaincy in 2012.[25] As captain he won the Singapore Cup in 2012 as well as the league title in 2014.

Zeit bei Geylang International

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

After playing for the Warriors for 9 years and amassing four league titles and winning the Singapore Cup three times, Bennett signed for Geylang International ahead of the 2016 S.League campaign.[26] He was a key cog of the Eagles defence, helping the team to the league's third-best defensive record, with 29 goals conceded in 24 games as Geylang finished fifth in the nine-team competition.[27]

Zeit bei den Tampines Rovers

[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

In 2017, Bennett joined the 6th S.League club of his career, signing for Tampines Rovers FC for the 2017 S.League season.[27] He made 31 appearances in all competitions for the Stags last season and was a key member of league's best local defence, earning him a 2-year extension with the club despite almost reaching 40 years old.[28]

After deliberating for two years, Bennett received his citizenship under the Foreign Sports Talent Scheme and became a naturalised Singapore national footballer.[29] He made his debut under Jan B. Poulsen in a friendly match against Philippines on 11 December 2002.[30] He had a goal disallowed that day, an effort that he still maintains was a legitimate goal. He would score his first international goal against Hong Kong on 4 August 2003.[31] His timely citizenship meant that he took part in the 2002 ASEAN Football Championship in co-hosts Singapore. The Lions failed their target of reaching the final,[32] exiting the competition at the group stage after poor performances by the team, including an abysmal 4-0 loss at home to traditional rivals Malaysia.[33]

Under coach Radojko Avramović, Bennett never missed a call-up to Singapore's tournament squad. He scored with a long-range effort in the 3rd minute of the 2004 finals first leg against Indonesia in front of an intimidating 100,000 Senayan crowd.[34] Singapore went on to win their second title after their 1998 triumph. Bennett completed a hat-trick of titles with tournament wins in 2007 and 2012.

Bennett earned his 100th cap against Thailand on 24 August 2011[35] and was inducted into the FIFA Century Club.[2][nb 1] With his 122nd appearance in the away leg of the 2012 ASEAN Football Championship finals, Bennett surpassed Aide Iskandar and Malek Awab as Singapore's most capped player.[36]

As of January 2017, Bennett has amassed 132 caps, tied with Shahril Ishak as Singapore's most-capped player.[27] As of November 2017, Bennett has 141 caps for Singapore.[37]

Zwar wurde er in England geboren, seine Familie zog mit ihm im Alter von zwei Jahren allerdings nach Singapur. Dort besuchte er die Tanglin Trust School sowie das United World College of South East Asia. Auf diesem College war sein Vater zudem Lehrer und späterer Schulleiter bis zum Jahr 2004.[3]. Seinen Abschluss machte er in Form eines Ehrendiploms der Sportwissenschaften an der Loughborough University.[38]

Bennett married his fiancee Cherry Cheung, a lady from China whom he met in Singapore, on 5 January 2005.[39][40]
