PHNOM PENH, Feb. 10 (Xinhua) -- Cambodia will host part of the ASEAN Football Federation Cup Tournament in October for Laos, Brunei, The Philippines, East Timor, and Cambodia, said a sports official here on Sunday.

Three winners out of the five countries will then go to Thailand or Indonesia to vie with Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia and Myanmar, said Keo Sarin, deputy secretary general of the Football Federation of Cambodia (FFC).

"We are trying to be successful in hosting part of the tournament," he added.

The ASEAN (the Association of Southeast Asia Nations) Football Confederation Cup Tournament derived from the Tiger Cup soccer match and is currently one of the most important sports events in the region.
