Philippines vs Bahrain- Full Video Replay FIFA World Cup Qualifier

Watch Philippines vs Bahrain- Full Video Replay FIFA World Cup Qualifier. At 107th position, Bahrain is the highest ranked team beaten by the Azkals.

Second half goals from Misagh Bahadoran and Javier Patino boosted the Azkals to victory against a team that came tantalizingly close to reaching the World Cup twice in the last three editions.

The win also gave the Azkals three points and the early lead in Group H of the qualifiers.

Two teams battled in a tight first half where the taller Bahrain side got initial looks on offense.

The Azkals suffered a huge blow when star player Schrock was hurt at the 24th minute and was forced to leave the game.

He was replaced by Bahadoran who turned things around for the Azkals after opening the floodgates in the second half.Five minutes after the break, he received a nice cross from Phil Younghusband, playing in the midfield, from the left flank. The Filipino-Iranian then slotted in a one-footed flick right in front of the goal to put the Filipinos ahead, 1-nil.
