PH bows out at World Cup qualifiers

(UPDATE) THE Philippine men's national football team's run in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers ended in a heartbreak after losing to Vietnam in added time, 2-3, at the My Dinh National Stadium in Hanoi on Thursday.

Philippine veteran goalkeeper Neil Etheridge managed to stop Nguyen Tuan Anh's attack with the score tied at 2-2, but his efforts went down the drain as his deflection set up Pham Tuan Hai who delivered the clincher off a rebound.
