The Philippine Men’s National Team run in the the AFC Asian Cup UAE 2019 Qualifiers journey ends this March.
The Philippines will first face Fiji in a FIFA International ‘A’ Friendly Match on 22 March 2018 at the Rizal Memorial Stadium.
That match serves as the team’s final preparation for the AFC Asian Cup UAE 2019 Qualifiers match against Tajikistan on 27 March 2018 also in the same venue.
23 players have been called up for the Fiji friendly. Goalkeeper Michael Falkesgaard is the newest addition to the squad. Forward Javier Patiño also makes his return after a knee injury ruled him out in the last three matches.
