Minute's silence to be held before Myanmar AFC Asian Cup qualifier

Yangon: A minute’s silence is set to be observed ahead of Tuesday’s AFC Asian Cup qualifier between Myanmar and Macau as a mark of respect to those who lost their lives when a Myanmar military aircraft crashed earlier this week.

Following Wednesday’s tragedy, the Myanmar Football Federation has requested that the 108 people killed in the accident be remembered by a moment of reflection before the Group A fixture with Macau at the Macau Olympic Stadium.

Both the Myanmar Football Federation and the Asian Football Confederation have expressed their deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathy to the family and friends of those affected by the incident.
