Nepal vs Philippines 2014 friendly– What should the strategy be

Nepalese Football has been a setback in terms of the results, mostly of the international Football. Nepalese Football has failed to give expected results in recent times and have been trophy less in last two decades which is huge disappointment for the fans that are all crazy about Nepalese Football.



Although Cricket has caught a quick height in recent time considering their respectful performance in World Cup Cricket, the most love sports is Football in the nation. People want to see results in Nepalese football; however they have failed to gain any.

The live of the match could be followed in different football portals in nepals with the likes of goal nepal and give me goal Nepal

Nepal’s recent defeat to 25 spot below Yemen is a clear display of what Nepalese Football lacks, attacking. Nepal played a good game in back line and the central of the field; however they failed on communication between the midfield and the front line which offered the opponents only a few shots on goals, and the countable one only with week shots.

Karna Limbu, Ashim Jung Karki, Deepak Rai all were given chances in the Yemen Friendly but only when the time was ticking away. They were given chance only in last 15 minutes of the game.

Philippines Friendly should be played positively. The last time Nepal played Philippines, it was a 4-0 victory for the Phil and  to accept the truth, Nepal’s standard is way below stable balance Philippines team that has been preparing for the AFC Challenge cup.


Nepal must gain something when they take on Philippines. They must either play defensively in order to achieve a draw which might influence current FIFA ranking or test new players who could be the future of national teams. Sujal Shrestha, Karna Limbu, Ashim Jung Karki, Deepak Rai, Shiva Shrestha are the name that should break into the start and test their ability as we have nothing to loose when we take on 30 spot ahead Philippines in Friendly match at Doha Qatar.
