Coach Ricki Herbert secured his sixth international victory since taking over as Maldives national coach when his side beat Bhutan 4-2 in the team’s final FIFA World Cup qualifying match.
The Maldives twice had to come from behind but finished strongly with two goals in the final five minutes to take the win at the National Football Stadium.
Since arriving in the Maldives last September, Herbert has coached the full Maldives national side and its U-23 team to six victories and two draws from 14 outings.
