    CHINESE Taipei stunned the Philippines with a late goal for a 3-2 victory on Monday night during their Fifa international friendly at the Rizal Memorial Stadium.

    Substitute Lin Ming-wei rebounded a save by Azkals goalkeeper Neil Etheridge and scored the game-winner late, completing Chinese Taipei’s comeback from one goal down at the half.

    Mike Ott scored on a penalty kick in the 13th minute to negate a very early goal conceded by the Azkals. Patrick Riechelt also scored in the 39th, allowing the Azkals to seize control of the match, 201.

    Yu Yao-hsing, however, tied the match in the 57th for Chinese Taipei after a pounding on a pass from Wang Geon-Myeong before the late goal of Lin.
