Indonesia team wins big, Cambodia looks like it will ruin its plan

(PLO) – Former four-time AFF Cup champion Singapore won hard against the world’s weakest team Guam 2-1 at home.

Many first-leg matches of the Play off round in phase 1 of the 2026 World Cup and 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers have ended.

Accordingly, many Southeast Asian teams found victory, but the goal of coach Felix Dalmas’ Cambodia team faced many difficulties. Kicking off in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, the away team from Pakistan was held to a scoreless draw.

This will cause countless difficulties for the Cambodian team when they travel to Pakistan’s Islamabad for the return match on the next 17th. Coach Felix Dalmas is full of confidence and very thoughtful preparation and he believes that the Cambodian team is capable of passing phase 1, defeating Pakistan in the end to enter the second phase, the group stage.

In Rangon, the Myanmar team also had an easy victory over Macau 5-1. In Taipei, host Taiwan defeated East Timor 4-0.

Two South Asian teams, Maldives and Bangladesh, shared points with a 1-1 draw in Male.

The team that won the AFF Cup four times, Singapore beat Guam 2-1. This score is not optimistic for the return match when Singapore has to go to Guam as a guest.
