MANILA, Philippines – National football team manager Dan Palami echoed this sentiment after watching the videos of the South Asian side, which the Philippine Azkals will face in the firstround of the qualifying tournament for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
“I’ve seen the tapes in the Challenge Cup and we have more than a fair chance,” Palami said during Tuesday’s PSA Forum at Shakey’s Pizza restaurant UN Ave. branch.
Two weeks ago, Sri Lanka competed in the AFC Challenge Cup Group D qualifier, where it failed to win a single match, bowing to 2010 World Cup qualifier North Korea (0-4) and Afghanistan (0-1) while forcing a scoreless draw opposite Nepal.
The Azkals joined a similar qualifying tourney in Myanmar, and managed to advance to the finals after finishing second in Group A with two draws and a win.
