The 2011 Long Teng Cup (traditional Chinese: 龍騰盃國際足球賽) is an international football competition that will be held in Kaohsiung, Chinese Taipei from 30 September 2011 to 6 October 2011.
The edition features three senior national teams (Chinese Taipei, Philippines and Macau) and the Hong Kong national under-23 football team, although there are plans to increase the number of participating teams from four to six. Vietnam, Singapore and Malaysia, were invited to enter the tournament.
-------------------
I was able to research on last year's event and based on my observations, the game will still be held in Kaohsiung National Stadium, a stadium that can hold up to 55,000 spectators. The lowest price for the single-fixture ticket might be 100 Taiwan dollars (around 150 pesos).
They actually had a sponsored raffle draw for those who held tickets, with prizes including motorcycles and Sony DSLRs. I think they are increasing their prizes given that Taiwan is currently celebrating their 100 years as a nation.
They might start their ticket reservations by around the 1st week of September.

Looking forward for the Azkals to play in this tournament again. However, from what I've been observing, some of our national team players might not be able to join for a number of reasons.
Goalkeeper Neil Etheridge has just been promoted as the regular reliever for the 1st team of Fulham in this season of the English Premier League. Midfielder Stephan Schroeck has a busy lineup of events for his club SpVgg Greuter Fuerth. Defender Rob Gier might go on paternity leave by the middle of September (he's expecting his first child at that time). We're still unsure of Jerry Lucena, Dennis Cagara and Paul Mulders due to club commitments and injuries, respectively.
So, what do you think will be the line-up of the national team during this tournament? I presume to put Paolo Pascual or Eduard Sacapano in place of Etheridge, put Jason de Jong in place of Schroeck. I'm just not sure if Jason Sabio or Roel Gener can take the place of Gier in the back four.
