The second leg of 2014 FIFA qualifying match between Philippines' Azkals versus Sri Lanka's Brave Reds kicked off on 3 July 2011 3:30 PM PHT at Rizal Memorial Football Field .
This is what you call a revenge!
In the first half of the match, two free kicks have been played for the Philippines and a Sri Lankan called for a foul. Obviously the match is dominated by the Philippine Azkals. But Sri Lanka can also give some burst of counter attacks. The Sri Lankan captain out at 89 minute with a second yellow card and touched the ball with his hands.
The filipino midfielder Emilio Caligdong showed prowess to score the first goal at 19th minute. At 43' striker Phil Younghusband scores the second goal. It was a controversial goal because the assistant referee (linesman) called for a foul, but the main referee did not. At 51' Angel Guirado with a lone effort, an assist by James Younghusband. At 54' Stephan Schrock was tackled by Sri Lanka player inside the box, maybe out of frustration. And Phil Younghusband took the penalty kick and sealed fourth goal at 57'.
It's said to be vengeance over Sri Lanka when last time they met in 1996, Sri Lanka beat Azkals 3 - 0. And now beat Sri Lanka 4 - 0. A 1 point higher and that was a great job.
