Myanmar once again showed that they can start strongly when they took the lead against the Philippines through a third minute strike from Htein Lin but in the end, the just did not have the material to carry them through as fell to a 5-2 loss.
Striker Bahadoran was the toast of the team on the day when he scored four goals (18th, 20th, 34th and 37th minute) as Ariel Zerrudo contributed the other in the 38th minute for the win.
Myanmar nailed their second goal of the game in the 30th minute.
“Against a team like Myanmar, we cannot play to our usual system so today we switched to the lone striker upfront and three players at the back. We did not have enough players for the tournament this year but I think that for next year, we will have a stronger team,” added Philippines head coach Ismaeil Sedigh.
“We had to of our key players injured and even though we scored the early goal, we just did not have enough material to make the substitutes and protect the lead that we had carved. We played badly in the second half and made far too many mistakes,” added Myanmar team manager Yei Htut Tin.
