BANGKOK – Lalo pang bumigat ang kinakaharap na kompetisyon ng Philippine Azkals sa Group A ng AFF Suzuki Cup.
Nakalasap ng 1-2 kabiguan sa mga kamay ng host Thailand noong Sabado ng gabi, haharapin naman ng Azkals ang Vietnam bukas ng alas-5:30 ng hapon dito sa Rajamangala Stadium.
Ginitla ng Azkals ang Vietnam sa semifinal round ng Suzuki Cp noong 2010.
Lalabanan ng Azkals ang mga Vietnamese na wala si German head coach Michael Weiss na napatawan ng one-game suspension dahil sa pamamato ng bola kay Anucha Kitpongsri.
Kasama ng Azkals sa Group A na tinatawag na ‘Group of Death’ ang Thailand (3 points), Myanmar (1 point) at Vietnam (1 point).
“We didn’t play our best against Thailand and we needed that game to get into the rhythm,” wika ni Weiss.
“We’re always bringing in players from Europe but that does automatically mean we’ll beat a strong team like Thailand at their homefield. I think we’ll get into good rhythm in the match against Vietnam and I’m pretty sure we’ll have a very good chance to advance to the second round,” dagdag pa nito.
