ASEAN
FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS
RP holds Myanmar
to scoreless draw
BY CEDELF P. TUPAS
BANGKOK --- The Philippines capped its Asean Football Championships bid with a noteworthy performance last night when it held Myanmar to a scoreless draw at the Army Stadium here.
With goalkeeper Michael Casas in inspired form, the nationals held their ground against a Burmese side desperate for a win to keep their semifinal bid alive after Thailand beat Malaysia, 1-0.
But the RP booters had other plans in mind, shrugging
off two straight 4-0 losses against the Thais and Malays.

Guba's father-coach, Socrates, said yesterday that he is happy
with his daughter's overall performance even if she was not able
to take the girls' 16-Under title. |
