Despite starting on the front foot, the Philippines had to wait till the 18th minute for their opening goal, forward Alex Pino rifling home the ball from just inside the box.

Hosts Cambodia had no time to gather their thoughts, with midfielder Meryll Serrano latching on to Jaclyn Sawicki's pass to slot the ball past Cambodia keeper Chea Fariya.

It got worse to the Cambodian custodian in the 36th minute as a quick thinking Serrano, seeing Chea off her line, audaciously lobbed the ball into the gaping goalmouth from just inside her own half.

It became four in the 41st minute, with the unfortunate Somrit Nimol sending Sofia Nicole Wunsch's cross into her own net.

Mark Torcaso's side only needed three minutes into the second half to move further ahead, with Hali Long sneaking in at the back post to tap home Angela Beard's free-kick.

 

A surging run from Carleigh Frilles on the right flank ended with the forward sending a perfect ball for Chandler Blue to slot home the sixth goal of the evening.

 

The evening ended with both sides reduced to 10 players, with Philippines forward Nina Mathelus given her marching orders in the 90th minute for a late challenge on Hea Sreylas with with Cambodia's Sem Malin following suit shortly after for a second yellow card.
