Group B will confirm the top position after the match takes place this afternoon, May 8.

The earliest match takes place at 4 p.m., Timor Leste (0 points) will clash Myanmar (0 points). While Timor Leste due to lack of personnel (because Covid-19) lost heavily to the Philippines 0-4 in the first round, then this is Myanmar’s opening match.
