But in the second tie, the host were down by three goals in the first half, with the visitors scoring first in the 15th minute through Fawzi Basher.
Five minutes later, Oman were two up, thanks to Yaqoob AbdullKareem, and their third came in the 34th minute, courtesy of Husain Ali.
Singapore's misery continued in the second half when Oman increased their lead to four goals.
