LAOS END U16 QUALIFIERS ON WINNING NOTE

VIENTIANE (Nov 6, 2007) – Laos ended their AFC Under-16 qualifiers on a winning note by beating Hong Kong 4-0 even though they failed to make the final round of the tournament next year.

Despite Indonesia conceded a 1-0 loss to Cambodia in their final match to end the qualifiers on the same three wins and two losses from five matches with Laos, the hosts made the AFC Under-17 Youth Championship next year on the virtue of having beaten Laos before.

Indonesia beat Laos 1-0 to gain the advantage in the head-to-head count.

In the other match of the qualifiers, Japan completed their fixtures with a resounding 4-0 win over Vietnam.
