Azkals in the AFC Challenge Cup 2012
Philippine Azkals will be playing in the AFC Challenge Cup starting March 9, 2012 with a match vs. Korea DPR.
AFC Challenge Cup started out as an international football competition for emerging nations (those in the lowest of three categories as designated by the AFC president) that are members of the Asian Football Confederation but emerging nations have likewise participated in the qualification and final rounds.

Following the FIFA Friendship game with Asian Powerhouse Malaysia Tigers, Philippine Azkals showed great confidence, perseverance and superior defense. We expect the Azkals to give these experienced teams a strong fight (I hope) in the AFC Challenge Cup.
In the FIFA friendship match, the game ended in a draw (1-1 PH vs. MY) with excellent performance from Dennis Wolf, Jason Sabio, Neil Etheridge, Angel Guirado, Phil Younghusband.
Here are the Azkals game schedules in the AFC Challenge Cup:
March 9 PH vs. DPR Korea 3:00 PM
March 11 PH vs. India 3:00 PM
March 13 PH vs. Tajikistan 3:00 PM
Watch it on Studio 23! Go Azkals! We believe!
