BACOLOD — The Philippine team stuck to an aggressive stand throughout to fashion a 7-0 shutout of Timor Leste Tuesday in the Asean Football Championship’s final qualifying at the Panaad Sports Complex here.


The Filipinos were on the attack mode from the very start, repeatedly shredding the Timorese defense to fashion the win that is only their second in the five-team Asean Football Federation event formerly known as the Tiger Cup.
