Male: Tajikistan and the Maldives played out a goalless draw at the National Stadium in the Maldivian capital on Wednesday as the 2012 AFC Challenge Cup qualifiers brought the curtain down on their successful Group C campaigns.
Both teams had already guaranteed their place next year’s final by defeating Cambodia and Kyrgyzstan, with the Indian Ocean islanders winning 4-0 and 2-1 respectively and the Tajiks recording 3-0 and 1-0 victories over the same opposition.
With nothing to separate the two sides in Friday’s final fixture, top spot in Group C was determined by goal difference and it was the Maldives who boasted the better ratio, claiming first place in the standings with a plus five GD compared to the plus four registered by the inaugural AFC Challenge Cup champions.
