The Philippine Azkals conceded a first half goal before falling short of salvaging a tie in a 1-0 loss to Syria Tuesday in the FIFA World Cup/AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers at the Al Maktoum Stadium in Dubai.
Ward Salama’s goal in the 23rd minute proved lethal as the Azkals tried several times late to equalize but to no avail, thus suffering their second loss in Group A.
