Returning forward Chandler McDaniel helps the Philippine women’s football team grab an early win in the qualifying tourney.
MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine women’s football team cruised to an impressive 4-0 victory over Pakistan to kickstart its campaign in the first round of the 2024 AFC Women’s Olympic Qualifying Tournament on Wednesday, April 5, at the Hisor Central Stadium in Tajikistan.
Bolden then had her own header at the 25-minute mark as she connected with Eva Madarang’s cross from the left wing to give the Philippines a 2-0 lead. The Philippines, ranked 49th in the world, temporarily goes on top of Group E with 3 points and a +4 goal difference, while 169th-ranked Pakistan sinks to the bottom with 0 points and a -4 goal difference.
Pasion was then named a starter versus Pakistan and she almost scored her first senior goal at the 45th minute after launching a shot from almost 30-yards out, but unfortunately for her, the ball only hit the crossbar.
