Sri Lanka defeat Brunei 1-0 in FIFA International Friendly

Sri Lanka secured a morale-boosting 1-0 victory over Brunei in a FIFA International Friendly played this afternoon at the Alpine Football Camp Training Centre in Bangkok, Thailand.

The match, which kicked off at 2.30 p.m. Sri Lanka time, served as a key preparatory fixture for both nations ahead of their AFC Asian Cup qualifying campaigns later this year.

Sri Lanka, ranked 200th in the FIFA World Rankings, entered the match as underdogs against 185th-ranked Brunei but showed resilience and tactical discipline to edge out their opponents with a solitary goal. (Newswire)
