HONG KONG—Hong Kong breathed new life into their title aspirations on day 3 of the tournament with an empathetic 5-1 victory over close neighbors Macau in their Pool A match at King’s Park on a rainy Monday evening (Nov 21).
With the tournament nearing the halfway mark, the direction of how the teams were going was beginning to emerge as two-time defending champions Bangladesh, also in Pool A and looking for a tri-peat, had earlier beaten Chinese Taipei on a 4-2 score line and close rivals Hong Kong on the opening day on a 4-2 note.
