Goh Tat Chuan (born 6 February 1974) was a former Singapore football player. A midfielder, he spent most of his time at Woodlands Wellington FC and was the 10th captain of the club. Goh is currently the record holder for the most appearances for Woodlands with 138 appearances. He graduated from St Joseph's Institution and the Nanyang Technological University and was one of the few players in the Singapore national soccer team to have a degree. During his time in the S-League, his passing skills and ability as a holding midfielder earned him a reputation as one of the best midfielders in the league and even in the region. Goh retired from professional football on 6 January 2007 to concentrate on his career as a commercial engineer.〔"Ex-lion Goh calls time on playing career", The Straits Times, 6 January 2007, Page 71〕 ==Club career== A software engineer, Goh pursued his football passion on a part-time basis by making his S.League debut in 1996 with Sembawang Rangers. When Jurong FC entered the 1997 S.League, Goh made the switch over to the Cobras where he played for three seasons. It was his convincing performances in the middle of the park for Jurong which prompted Singapore coach Barry Whitbread to call him up to play for the Singapore national team in 2001. Having made his name as a no-nonsense anchorman at Jurong FC,〔"A midfield battle", Today, 15 June 2001, Page 31,〕 Goh moved to rivals Woodlands Wellington in time for the 2002 S.League season together with fellow Cobra A. Siva Kumar. It was at Woodlands where Goh's career really flourished. Following the departure of Simon Clark at the end of the 2004 S.League season, Goh was handed the captain's armband, becoming the tenth captain in Woodlands' history i the process. He continued to play for Woodlands and made a total of 138 appearances for the Rams until his retirement in early 2007. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Goh Tat Chuan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
