ASEAN Women's Championship
Philippines defeated Timor-Leste 7-0 while Myanmar edged Australia 2-1.
Myanmar 2-1 Australia
Myanmar were quick to settle and Naw Htet Ntet Wai almost found a way through the Australian defence in the 12th minute, racing onto a perfectly weighted ball behind the backline from Win Theingi Tun only to thump her first-time shot over the bar from the edge of the area.
Fifteen minutes later, Phyu Phyu Win’s cross from the left almost caught out Sally James in the Australian goal while Grace Johnston threatened at the other end moments later, forcing Myo Mya Mya Nyein to palm the ball clear.
Myanmar took the lead in the 32nd minute through a speculative effort from Mon Myint, the midfielder sending a curling and dipping effort from 25 yards beyond James after the ball landed in her path after a clash between Phyu Phwe and Sofia Sakalis.
The lead was doubled within two minutes of the restart when James' attempt to pass out from defence was cut out by Win Theingi Tun, who stole possession and slid the ball into the empty net.
Win Win then hit the crossbar and Khin Mo Mo Tun shot across the face of goal as Myanmar hunted for a third while Australia’s Aideen Keane hit the side-netting from close range after goalkeeper Myo Mya Mya Nyein had fumbled Alana Jancevski’s 70th minute effort.
The Australians continued to push for a way back into the game and Holly Furphy reduced the deficit five minutes from time when she slotted in Keane’s low centre from the left, but Myanmar held on to claim the points.
Myanmar next face Timor-Leste on Sunday, while Australia take on the Philippines.
Philippines 7-0 Timor-Leste
Philippines took the lead within two minutes, Aaliyah Schinaman converting from close range after being teed up by Chandler McDaniel.
The advantage was doubled five minutes later through Quinley Quezada’s strike from inside the box before captain Hali Long nodded home in the ninth minute via another McDaniel assist.

Quezada then grabbed her second, turning in Dionesa Tolentin’s cross in the 32nd minute to take Mark Torcaso’s side into the break with a handsome advantage.
Gorette in Timor-Leste’s goal conceded again in the 57th minute, Tolentin’s powerful strike too much for her to handle.
