Cambodia beat neighboring Laos 4-2 in the opening leg of their World Cup qualifier on Wednesday. Visiting Laos took a ninth-minute lead through teenage midfielder Manolom Phomsouvanh but that advantage was overturned in a hectic period that saw four goals scored between the 51st and 67th minutes. Khuon Laboravy equalized for Cambodia and substitute Samel Nasa put the hosts ahead. |
