Stephan Schrock to rejoin Azkals

After being suspended in the first leg, Filipino-German standout Stephan Schrock will be back in Manila to rejoin on the Philippine Azkals in an intensified team work against powerhouse Kuwait.

"He will be a big boost to the team," said Azkals manager Dan Palami.

Palami said that Schrock will arrive on Tuesday, two days before the match against Kuwait. His presence will be a big help to the team since Aly Borromeo one of their member was suspended and prohibited to join the 2nd leg of the match. Borromeo however is expected to be back after serving his suspension.

"We have a tough job in Manila because of that 0-3 deficit," said Palami.

Azkals loss in their first match against Kuwait with a score of 3-0. Nonetheless, Palami and coach Michael Weiss believed that their team can still catch up. — ARA
