PHNOM PENH, Cambodia: The Philippine men's volleyball and football teams bowed out of medal contention in the 32nd Southeast Asian Games on Thursday, May 4.

The Philippine men's volleyball team got its medal hopes smashed after it dropped to 0-2 in Group A following an 18-25, 18-25, 17-25 loss to host Cambodia at the Indoor Olympic Stadium. The Filipinos, currently third in Group A, will wrap up their group phase schedule on Saturday, May 6, against Singapore. The Azkals will end its group phase schedule against Myanmar on May 10.
