By Ivan Stewart Saldajeno | PNA

MANILA — Kaya Iloilo stunned the Pakansari Stadium in Bogor, West Java, Indonesia after drawing with PSM Makassar, 1-1, in their AFC Cup match on Tuesday.

Makassar thought it would get the full three points at home after Finnish reinforcement Eero Markkanen delivered a 56th minute penalty to put the club up.

However, Marwin Angeles received a great feed from Jovin Bedic off a free kick in the third minute of stoppage time and slotted the close-range shot in for the tie.

Both Iloilo and Makassar are tied in first place in Group H with five points after the first round of the group stages, but Iloilo holds the tiebreaker on away goals, thanks to Angeles’ late equalizer.

Both sides will face off again on April 17 at the Panaad Stadium in Bacolod.
