Report |
The match was abandoned in the 55th minute with China leading 3–0. After Cheung had scored China's third goal from a penalty, the Filipino goalkeeper punched Cheung in the face, sparking a brawl which was broken up by match officials and police: consequently, the Philippines had several players (including the goalkeeper) sent off, and withdrew from the tournament.[1]
