00:12This is the story of Daryl Oc Lares.
00:17The Philippine Men's National Football Team finished the game in one-all last night
00:21against Myanmar to start their campaign in the ASEAN Mitsubishi Electric Cup 2024.
00:28The Philippines became aggressive early in the first half and scored a few goals.
00:35But Myanmar was the first to score after the free kick of the midfielder, Wong Wong Luwens, in the 25th minute.
00:44In the second half, Myanmar scored again in the 63rd minute,
00:49but it was called uncounted by the video assistant referee.
00:53The Rizal Memorial Stadium was even more alive after the penalty kick of Bjorn Christensen in the 72nd minute
01:01so that the game could continue.
01:04Kupunan remained even until the final whistle in the last 10 minutes.
01:10The final score was one goal for the Philippines and Myanmar.
01:15At the post-game press conference,
01:17Head Coach Albert Capillas did not hide his disappointment with the result of the game.
01:24Still, we had chances to win the game, but we couldn't score.
01:28I think today is a game that we really have to win, but it's how it is.
01:32Now, we have to go to Laos and win this game there.
01:36That is always the next game.
01:47I'm here since 2019.
01:50And since 2019, I see many coaches pass by, many players pass by,
01:55and I think now we are creating something special as a group, as a mindset, as a game.
02:03And I believe that we can do great things in the near future and in the long future.
