The Philippines losses to higher ranked Kuwait in the last day of their Middle East camp as they were unable to match the past-paced game of Kuwait. The game ended with the final score at 2-1.
Two controversial calls were made by the referee which sent first Phil Younghusband who scored the lone goal for the Philippines in the 60th minutes of the game and equalized the score with 1-1. The penalty came at around 60th minutes of the game where the returning Phil Younghusband easily scored the goal for the Azkals.
The other controversial call was the foul inside the box committed by Juani Guirado which sent Fahad Al-Enezi of Kuwait to the penalty and scored the second goal of Kuwait at around 70th minutes of the game.
Kuwait scored the first goal of the match at around 35th minutes courtesy of Kuwaiti veteran midfielder Bader Al-Mutawa, the #11 of Kuwait, the same person who previously scored against the Azkals during their first meetings in the Asian World Cup Second Round Qualification.
