Semifinals set at IIHF Challenge of Asia

Taiwan - Malaysia 0-3 (0-1,0-2,0-0)
For the first time top scorer Kin Ban Loke doesn't score - but served 2 assists - but against the weak Taipei are enough three goals by Edmond Ng, captain Peng Khia Tang and Chee Seng Khoo to earns the spot for semifinals. The tomorrow game against UAE, winner of group A, will be the real first tough challenge for Malay, coming for the (semi) final act with a perfect record and a 48/7 goals difference. Taiwan is back home with the undesired title of worst team, with a campaign worse then amateurish teams as Macau and India

Kuwait - India 13-2  (4-1,4-1,5-0)
Dream is over for host India but Adam Sherlip team left the tournament head-high: the first ever victory against Macau brings India to an historical Qualification Playoffs. Kuwait is too strong and a much better organized team and game was an Arab's solo. Meshal Al Ajmi scored five goals, Salem Al Ajmi three and Indian goalie Sonam Gurmet stopped 62 shots. Now Kuwait will face again Thailand in semifinals: yesterday Thai team won clearly 8-2
