Ian Araneta's goal just changed everything.
The Bangladesh Bengals can no longer afford to sit back on defense. A loss to the Azkals automatically eliminates them so they have to push forward, the same way the Azkals pushed hard in the first half.
Myanmar is leading Palestine 1:0 in the other game and Bangladesh needs to get a draw to have a chance at advancing to the next round.
For the Azkals, it's now a matter of playing to win, instead of playing not to lose. They must now be conscious of letting the Bengals go deep into their territory but they can't play defensively. The best defense is a potent offense so they must continue to push forward, so that the Bengals have a harder time getting to the Azkal goal.
But most of all, it's about playing smart and passionate. GO AZKALS!
