The fourth and last place, however, remains open and Myanmar coach Soe Myat Min has stressed that their collective home should be Malaysia's next match.
"We have a decisive match against Malaysia coming. And we must be well prepared, "he said.
Malaysia and Myanmar each have one point each, while Indonesia has 2 points after 2 draws in 2 games. If Myanmar won against Malaysia and Cambodia beat or equalized with Indonesia, Myanmar would qualify for the semi-finals of the tournament as the fourth team.
However, if Indonesia were to defeat Cambodia, the result of the match Myanmar – Malaysia would be inconsequential.
