Singapore's hopes of reaching the fourth round of World Cup qualifiers for the first time look all but over following a 0-3 loss to Jordan at the Jalan Besar Stadium on Tuesday evening.
The Lions' third successive defeat leaves them rock bottom in Group A, while Jordan have made a perfect start with three wins out of three.
Abdallah Deeb headed the visitors in front after just 11 minutes, before Anas Bani-Yaseen and Ahmad Hayel struck in the second-half to seal a comprehensive victory.
Playing in front of a partisan crowd of 3,799, Singapore's misery was compounded when skipper Shahril Ishak had a goal controversially ruled out for offside.
