AFF U16: LAOS CELEBRATE OPENING WIN IN FRONT OF 10,000 FANS

VIENTIANE (9 July 2011) – Laos lived up to the hopes of over 10,000 fans at the National Sports Complex here to deliver a stunning 2-0 win over 10-man Timor Leste in their opening AFF Under-16 Group A match tonight.

Victory did not come easy as the hosts took some time to settle down and take control of the game, but when they did they had the crowd screaming in delight. It was not surprising that the Laos team started off strongly tonight.

With such sound support, the players were fired up the moment they stepped on the pitch. Within minutes of the start, the Laos players were already chasing down their opponents. However, despite all their efforts, Laos failed to find the mark in the first half.
