The International Friendly match between Philippines and Chinese Taipei will take place at Rizal Memorial Stadium on Monday at 4:30 pm IST.
Philippines are looking to secure back-to-back wins for the first time in five years as they host Chinese Taipei at Rizal Memorial Stadium on Monday afternoon. In contrast, Chinese Taipei arrives in Manila with the goal of ending their winless streak in what is only their second match since the beginning of the year.
Philippines managed to scrape past Nepal and secure a narrow 1-0 victory in their recent match on Thursday. Javier Gayoso scored the sole goal of the game in the fifth minute of the second half, allowing his team to claim a hard-fought triumph. As a result, Philippines ended a streak of four consecutive defeats across all competitions, during which they only managed to score once. Their next challenge involves facing an opponent who has only won once in the last six meetings between the teams, dating back to 2010. However, that lone victory occurred in the most recent encounter between the sides, as the hosts on Monday suffered a comprehensive 3-0 defeat in a friendly match.
Chinese Taipei and Thailand played out an exciting 2-2 draw in their recent match at Kaohsiung National Stadium. The team took the lead in a dramatic fashion, benefiting from an own goal by Kritsada Kaman. However, Teerasil Dangda’s goal and an own goal by Wang Ruei turned the game around in favor of Thailand. Nonetheless, Ting-Yang Chen managed to equalize three minutes before the final whistle. This result marks the first time since 2019 that the East Asian side has avoided defeat in consecutive matches, ending a 10-game losing streak. Following a rare clean sheet in their recent away game, the visitors on Monday will aim to maintain defensive solidity in order to achieve a positive outcome.
Philippines probable starting lineup: Deyto, Sato, Steuble, Murga, Curran, Ingreso, Kekkonen, Reyes, Ott, Daniels, Gayoso
Chinese Taipei probable starting lineup: Wen-Chieh, Fong, Wu, Ruei, Wang, Estevez, Chen, Wu, Yu, Yao-hsing, Chen
