The game, which will be held in Qatar, is the second time the Azkals will play that nation. The two sides played a friendly back in October 2011, at the Rizal Memorial Stadium, with the home team coming out on top, 4-0.

Nepal is currently at 169th in the world, while the Philippines is 127th, though rankings are expected to change this week.

New Azkals coach Thomas Dooley is still looking for his first win. Earlier in March, the Philippines drew against Malaysia 0-0, in Malaysia, and later lost to Azerbaijan, 1-0, in Dubai. - AMD, GMA News
