The Philippines qualified for the tournament final with Madarang scoring four goals in five games as a striker. Prior to the qualifiers, she was trained in her natural position of left back.[4]

Madarang was among the players named to the national team that participated at the 2017 Southeast Asian Games.

The coaching staff decided not to play her so she could be fit enough to play at the 2018 AFC Women's Asian Cup.[10]
