MANILA – Phil Younghusband has felt a little discouraged by the lack of supporter support during his recent home games of the AFF Suzuki Cup.
That's why he called on local fans to watch them face Vietnam in the semifinal at Panaad's Bacolod Stadium this Sunday.
"It saddens me to see that on the 10 teams of the 2018 Suzuki Cup, at each of the two home games of the team in the group, we had the lowest attendance and the last rank", said Fil-British striker in an Instagram. to post.
The Philippines ranked last in the list of AFF countries with only 7,849 participants in their home games.
Malaysia tops the list with 95,904 participants.
Younghusband was further hurt by the fact that the Philippines was below Timor-Leste, a country without a court of residence.
"Even Timor-Leste, which has not played any games in their country, has been able to gather more support than we do," Younghusband said.
"That's why I'm asking for your support this Sunday against Vietnam in our semi-final at home, if you're in Bacolod, go to Bacolod or tell Bacolod's friends, let's try to fill the Panaad Stadium Salamat mga kababayans! "
The Azkals Philippines have managed to qualify for the semi-finals after imposing a 0-0 draw against Indonesia in Jakarta last Sunday.
