West Negros University reasserted its supremacy in men’s football yesterday, blanking St. Benilde College, 2-0, to take home the championship in the 14th National University Games at the Central Philippine University pitch in Iloilo City.
Though having a hard time making the necessary adjustment to turn back the aggressive attacks from the CSB side, the Wesnecans, mentored by former national coach and RP campaigner Norman Fegidero, found their rhythm in the second half and connected the first goal in 50th minute courtesy of Joven Bedic. Seven minutes after, Ruffy Llorente sent a free kick directly to the goal’s mouth to seal the win.
In women’s football, University of Sto. Tomas claimed the crown by beating De La Salle University, while University of the Philippines settled for second runner-up honors by prevailing over University of San Carlos, 5-0, at the Sta. Barbara town football ground.

Malay Mail eyes more football visits to Bacolod next year
VISITING Malaysian football club Malay Mail, which finished behind Bacolod United FC in last week’s Philippines-Malaysia Veterans Football Championship 2009 plans to come back next year together with other Malaysian club teams to compete in a much bigger edition of the event.
This was confirmed by Edward Magallona, Philippine Football Federation (PFF) grassroots committee head, who was instrumental in bringing Malay Mail here for last weekend’s inaugural veterans’ series.
Malay Mail, owned by journalist Tony Mariadas, plans to come back in January next year with another batch of veteran footballers who will play against local clubs.
“Malay Mail will be back again at least twice next year to hopefully play against local veteran club teams from Bacolod as well as from other football centers like Iloilo, Dumaguete, Cebu, Davao and Cagayan de Oro in a tournament that will hopefully be bigger in terms of the number of participating teams,” Magallona said.
While in Bacolod, Mariadas took time to renew ties with former Negros Occidental Football Association (NOFA) president Ricardo ‘Cano’ Tan, who was responsible for bringing the team here in the 1990s to compete in the President’s Cup football series which was participated by the RP national squad, as well as teams from Chinese Taipei and Pakistan and China, among others.
PFF general secretary Cyril Dofitas, who was in town to oversee the staging of last weekend’s series at Panaad in cooperation with local organizing committee head Rafael Lizares, president of the Executive Village Football Club, said he looks forward to a much bigger tournament next year.
“We envision this to be an annual event henceforth,” Dofitas said.
Malay Mail bowed to Bacolod United FC, 2-3, in the title match last Sunday with the Bacolod side’s goals coming from former national team mainstay Norman Fegidero Jr. with 2, coming in the 23rd and 27th minutes, while teammate Greg Gustilo sealed the win with a goal in the 50th minute.
he Malaysians scored through Supramanian who broke the ice in the 9th minute while Moud Faridzal Kazim added another goal in the 36th minute.
Real Negrense FC finished third after winning 1-0 over ERCO Cebu FC.
The tournament was co-hosted by Bacolod United FC, mentored by former RP team coach Reynaldo Dofitas and Real Negrense FC headed by Jun Lacson.

Malay Mail, owned by journalist Tony Mariadas, scored through Supramanian who broke the ice in the ninth minute whileMoud Faridzal Kazim tallied another in the 36th minute.

Milo Little Olympics - ANS comeback kids top high school football
LAST year, the Abellana National School football players were on the outside looking in, barred from joining the Milo Little Olympics.
During the awarding ceremony for football yesterday, all eyes were on them—the champions of the first Milo Little Olympics national finals.
ANS completed a sweep of its games with a workmanlike 6-0 win over Mindanao yesterday to bag the gold medal in secondary football and earn the 30 championship points for the Visayas.
They finished with nine points on three wins, while Mindanao settled for the silver with four on a win and a draw.
Luzon took third place with two points after a draw with NCR in the final game yesterday.
“The boys were really hungry to win the title because last year they were not able to join,” said ANS coach Francis Ramirez. “We got lucky because now that we got to play again, Milo decided to hold a national finals.”
In the first half against Mindanao, that hunger was missing and ANS looked more like they were on a practice match than in a title-clincher.
Mindanao even had the first clear chance after a striker was left inside the box before the defense clamped on him.
First chance
Carlito Abadia Jr. had the first clear shot for ANS but missed three shots inside 15 minutes, while Karlo Cuizon also misfired a lob.
Things got heated in the 18th when a Mindanao striker went down away from the ball--due to a punch according to their camp or due to an unintentional collision while both were running to the open space, according to others.
Referee Vincent Ramos booked Prince Anthony, who protested his innocence, for a yellow card to help cut the tension.
ANS finally got on board in the 29th with James Bacus’ point- blank shot and cranked up their offense in the second.
Abadia’s struck just 40 seconds into the second half off a give-and-go, while Jose Bacunawa, who relieved Abadia in the 40th minute, got in the scoring act in the 43rd. Rafael Estremos made it 4-0 two minutes later.
A change of keepers didn’t stop the binge for Mindanao—Alger Montayre made it 5-0 and Bacunawa scored on a cheeky lob in the last three minutes.
ANS’ victory somehow offset the Sacred Heart School-Jesuit’s loss in the elementary division.
“We were in control for most of the match but our defense failed to mark their men in the final minutes,” said SHS-J coach Lito Ramos.
Isagani Fernandez put the host ahead in the 20th before Jan Frederick Cujogan equalized in the 40th.
In the shootout, SHS-J split its first two shots, while Luzon converted two for its third win and the gold medal.
Visayas settled for the silver on two wins and a loss, while NCR got the bronze with one win.

During the awarding ceremony for football yesterday, all eyes were on them—the champions of the first Milo Little Olympics national finals.
ANS completed a sweep of its games with a workmanlike 6-0 win over Mindanao yesterday to bag the gold medal in secondary football and earn the 30 championship points for the Visayas.
They finished with nine points on three wins, while Mindanao settled for the silver with four on a win and a draw.
Luzon took third place with two points after a draw with NCR in the final game yesterday.
“The boys were really hungry to win the title because last year they were not able to join,” said ANS coach Francis Ramirez. “We got lucky because now that we got to play again, Milo decided to hold a national finals.”
In the first half against Mindanao, that hunger was missing and ANS looked more like they were on a practice match than in a title-clincher.
Mindanao even had the first clear chance after a striker was left inside the box before the defense clamped on him.
First chance
Carlito Abadia Jr. had the first clear shot for ANS but missed three shots inside 15 minutes, while Karlo Cuizon also misfired a lob.
Things got heated in the 18th when a Mindanao striker went down away from the ball--due to a punch according to their camp or due to an unintentional collision while both were running to the open space, according to others.

Cebu football - Crazy Horse routs SRRU,7-0
THE defending champions Crazy Horse showed that it is still the most formidable team in the Men’s League of the 12th Aboitiz Football Cup as it demolished San Roque Royal United (SRRU), 7-0, yesterday at the Aboitiz Sports field.
After giving San Roque FC (SRFC) its first loss of the tournament with a 9-1 beating last week, Crazy Horse handed SRRU its third straight loss in the competition.
Epifanio Ynot drew first blood as he scored in the 23rd minute from pointblank range, while out-hustling the SRRU defenders.
Substitute Masahi Koyagi immediately let his presence felt after entering in the second half of regulation with a quick goal in the 49th.
Koyagi struck inside the box, off a well-calculated pass by playmaker Jan Michael Abellana from the right flank.
Three minutes, Abellana created an opportunity for himself, outmaneuvering the SRRU defense with his fancy footwork for 3-0.
After that, there was no stopping the Crazy Horse offense.
Mitsuo Tsunakiri struck in the 65th minute then Koyagi scored his second goal of the game nine minutes after.
Tsunakiri contributed another goal in the 81st minute, Albert Nangkil scored in the 87th minute, while Abellana sealed the victory with a goal a minute before time.
Crazy Horse is still undefeated and sits at the top spot of the Men’s League with six points from two victories, while SRRU is still winless and remains the worst team in the competition.
In the other Men’s League game, University of Southern Philippines Foundation (USPF) routed SRFC, 4-1.
SRFC’s Ramie Colina scored the first goal of the match with just 10 minutes off the clock. However USPF bounced back and tied the game, 1-1, with a strike by Rene Sanchez in the 54th minute.
USPF then took over the lead, 2-1, as Oliver Colina added another goal 11 minutes after.

Limpag: That’s all folks!
BEING a Philippine football fan, it seems, is a bit like being a runner.
You have to continually punish yourself for your love of the sport.
The only difference is, in running, you know that you’d eventually reach your goal before you die.
In football, you’d probably die first of thirst or of fatigue before you get 100 kilometers near your goal.
I really don’t know what Philippine Football Federation president Mari Martinez is doing but whatever it is, he’s doing it badly.
Consider the massacre he put the Philippine Boys’ 16-Under team into in the Group E qualifiers for the AFC Championships.

DEFENDING champion West Negros University nailed its 7th straight NOPSSCEA men’s football title last Monday at the Panaad Sports and Recreational Park pitch in Barangay Mansilingan when it defeated arch rival University of St. La Salle, 4-2. Scoring for the Norman Fegidero Jr. mentored Wesnecans were James Braga and Lemuel Unabia with 1 apiece and Gino Palomo with 2 goals.
WNU actually lost, 4-2, also to USLS in their previous encounter, while they also nipped University of Negros Occidental-Recoletos, 1-0, last Saturday, Oct. 17 at the Bacolod City National High School pitch courtesy of the lone goal by former RP team campaigner Joeven Bedic.

Philippines withdrew from Asian Indoor Games futsal ?
Nhan Dan – The Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) has decided not to take part in the third Asian Indoor Games (AIG 3) due to the continuous interference made by the Philippine Sports Committee (PSC) in POC’s works.
J. Camacho, head of the Philippine Sports Delegation said that the PSC had not respected the POC’s legitimate rights.
Initially, the POC proposed to send 160 athletes taking part in the AIG 3, but PSC only agreed to send around 50 athletes who would compete in seven events.

UFL - Kaya win 3-0
Kaya booters blank Nomads
By Cedelf P. TupasPhilippine Daily Inquirer
First Posted 03:31:00 10/18/2009MANILA, Philippines--
An inspired second half display boosted multititled Kaya-Digiprint to a 3-0 blanking of Nomads-Aloha Board Sports at the start of the United Football League LBC Cup last night at the Nomads pitch in Merville, Parañaque.Rewarded for their pressure, the Kaya booters, with skipper Aly Borromeo pulling the strings at midfield, struck three goals in a span of seven minutes to finally put the game away.Sudanese striker Izzeldin El-Habbib scored two goals, while Alex Anselmussio added another for Kaya, which couldn’t make the most of its opportunities early on.Denied twice by the crossbar in the first half, El-Habbib made sure there was no letdown in the 77th minute when he beat two defenders before slotting the ball past Nomads keeper Jeff Blake.El-Habbib doubled the lead six minutes later, ghosting into the area before firing home a right-footed shot from just inside the box.

An inspired second half display boosted multititled Kaya-Digiprint to a 3-0 blanking of Nomads-Aloha Board Sports at the start of the United Football League LBC Cup last night at the Nomads pitch in Merville, Parañaque.Rewarded for their pressure, the Kaya booters, with skipper Aly Borromeo pulling the strings at midfield, struck three goals in a span of seven minutes to finally put the game away.Sudanese striker Izzeldin El-Habbib scored two goals, while Alex Anselmussio added another for Kaya, which couldn’t make the most of its opportunities early on.Denied twice by the crossbar in the first half, El-Habbib made sure there was no letdown in the 77th minute when he beat two defenders before slotting the ball past Nomads keeper Jeff Blake.El-Habbib doubled the lead six minutes later, ghosting into the area before firing home a right-footed shot from just inside the box.

The other week, Guissepe also suffered a blowout loss to Cebu International School, 19-0, and also dropped a 15-0 loss to Don Bosco College in its debut.
On the other hand, San Roque FC–Arsenal routed Hiroshi FC, 2-0, in the 38-and-above category for its fifth straight win.
Ariel Esfarcia scored the opening goal in the 62nd minute while Eric Colina struck 10 minutes after.

SRFC Arsenal kept its commanding lead in the 38-and-above class as it now has 15 points from five victories, while second-seeded Hiroshi FC suffered its second defeat and is stuck at six points.
In other games, Don Bosco Magone crushed Xantos FC, 4-0, in the Mens Cup while Carsheinians drew with Melborne, 0-0, in the Girls 17 class.

United Football League - Nomads-Kaya tiff kicks off RP’s 1st pro football tilt
MANILA, Philippines — The country’s first ever professional, corporate-sponsored football league kicks off at 2 p.m. Saturday with an opening game featuring top squads Nomads FC against Kaya FC at the Nomad Sports Club in Merville, Parañaque.
National team aces Phil and James Younghusband take to the field for Nomads against a Kaya squad skippered by RP team captain Aly Borromeo in the maiden match of the United Football League LBC Cup.
Sixteen squads, including teams from the Armed Forces of the Philippines, clubs of expatriates and schools, are seeing action in the three-month-long tournament organized by the Football Alliance and the United Football Club Association.
UFCA president Christopher Hagedorn said the league is expected to address the need for the sport’s development and to draw attention to the sport which he said is very popular across the globe but is often ignored locally.
“All of us here grew up playing some form of football and it is the second most-played sport in the country,” said Hagedorn.
“In due time, the league will train our players to the point where the World Cup isn’t just a game but a goal.”
FA head and former national player Randy Roxas said the intensity of the competition will define the country’s first foray in play-for-pay football.
“The UFL will elevate weekend football to a professional level,” said Roxas. “Finally, the best of the best will be given the right opportunity to develop their talents.”
Javier Montecon of LBC, major backer of the National Capital Region Football Association-sanctioned event, assured everything is in place to make the UFL’s LBC Cup a success.

Cebu football - Springdale wins second straight title
PAREF-Springdale of Unit 6 retained its title in the secondary division football tournament of the Cebu City Olympics after a come-from-behind penalty shootout victory over Abellana National School (ANS) of Unit 9 yesterday at the Cebu City Sports Complex.
Both teams had a difficult time scoring in regulation and demonstrated top caliber defense.
ANS’s aggressiveness paid off in the 56th minute with right winger Jovan Bacus striking from inside the box.
ANS, which was banned last year after playing in a tournament outside of Cebu without permission from the Department of Education, continued to attack and had most of the ball possession.
However, Springdale finally got on board as forward Bran Go hit the equalizer in the 79th.
Both teams were still tied at the end of regulation and the game went to a shootout.
Goalie John Ray Nieves, made the first penalty for ANS for a 1-0 lead and kept it that way as he blocked Go in Springdale’s first attempt.
The next two kickers for both squads made their penalty kicks, for a 3-2 ANS lead.
Springdale got a chance to steal win after Shanee Sarmiento of ANS missed his strike, and Lyon Valenzuela converted his shot to even the count.
The fifth kickers of both teams then scored, forcing the sudden-death kicks.
Joeford Dolino volunteered to take the shot for ANS but his strike was deflected by Joshua Cruz, paving the way for Mikel Alazas’ heroics.
“Our victory was a little bit sweet because we were losing. Then there was a run by our player Bran Go. We thought the game was lost already,” said Mario Ceniza in a interview with Sun.Star Cebu.
“The game was really for us because we came to life in the sudden death of the penalty shootout,” he added.

ASEAN Women`s U16 Championship - 0-14 against Australia
YANGON (10 Oct 2009) – Australia and Vietnam, clearly the two strongest teams in Group B, cruised through their opening AFF Under-16 Women’s Championship matches today, resoundingly beating the Philippines and Myanmar B, at the Aung San Stadium here. The Aussies, the pre-tournament favourites, walked away with a comfortable 14-0 win while Vietnam celebrated a well deserved 5-0 victory today.Today’s result moved the two winners a step closer to the semifinals while Myanmar B and the Philippines have to win their next group matches to remain in contention.

Heidi Makrillos followed up with two quick goals, in the 13th and 15th minutes while Samantha Kerr made 4-0 in the 39th minute.

To their credit, Philippines goalkeeper Inna Palacios and defenders Dominique Scott and Marie Navea-Huff turned away numerous attempts, especially in the first half, limiting the Aussies to six goals.Australia got the show off the ground with an eighth minute opener from Teigen Allen. Heidi Makrillos followed up with two quick goals, in the 13th and 15th minutes while Samantha Kerr made 4-0 in the 39th minute. Alanna Kennedy and Caitlin Friend made it 6-0 in the last three minutes of the first half.It was Australia again in the second half with eight more goals – Ashlee Faul (56th), Alanna Kennedy (61st, 90th), Teigen Allen (70th), Caitlin Friend (74th, 79th, 81st) and Brittany Whitfield.

RP kisses AFC U-16 Qualifier hopes goodbye
Outplayed and outclassed in all departments, Team Philippines Under-16 football squad formally bid their hopes for securing a slot in next year’s AFC U16 Championships set in Nepal goodbye as they suffered a devastating 0-9 loss against Indonesia in the Group E Qualifiers of the AFC event yesterday at the Panaad Stadium football pitch in Brgy. Mansilingan, Bacolod City.
Once again, the Filipinos’ lack of training and exposure to international matches was evident on how they launched their attacks against the well-prepared Indons.
Sharing his technical analysis on the match, assistant coach John Carmona admitted that Indonesia is not only physically fit but they had better preparations.
“We lost to Indonesia in a match of endurance. It was evident that the Indonesians were physically fit for this Qualifiers,” Carmona said.
He added that what the RP Team needs is a system of good and early preparation.
As rain clouds darkened the Pana-ad skies, a near own goal a couple of minutes into the game cast a spell of gloom and doom for the hapless RP XI as keeper Christopher Nicholas Camcam fumbled with the ball.
While Camcam managed to execute a couple of impressive saves, as the Indons started attacking the goal, his skills was no match against the rampaging Robin Bagus Febrian who acutely followed up a missed stab to register Indonesia’s first goal.
From then on, it was an all-Indonesia show in the first half as Purwa Putra added his own two goals while Hendriko Masko Kiwak and Hadi Wibowo scored one apiece for a 5-0 first half blitz.
Negrense Melecio Manuel Mentor’s attempt midway in the second half was the only bright spot for the RP XI as the Indons dominated the entire game for a 0-9 victory, unmindful of the heavy downpour.
“We need more matches for the boys, both local and international. Despite the loss, we are motivating them to give their best in our last game against Bangladesh tomorrow. The team should improve its overall performance,” coach Carmona said.

Chinese Taipei broke the ice in the 8 th minute courtesy of forward Yu-Ting Ko with Meng-Che Lee making 2-0 in the 14th. Midfielder Kun-Huei Shih's made it a tall order for the RP team to play catch up in the second half by booting in Taipei 's 3 rd goal in the 40 th for a 3-0 margin at halftime.
Forward Meng-Che Lee iced the game for the visiting Chinese in the 47 th .
Taipei head coach Chun-Chih Chen said Team Philippines played well and their performance has improved since the opening game against Japan .
Not leaving anything to chances, Chen said he told his players to stick to their game plan and execute their strategies to prevail over the host team.

Japan toys with RP XI in Asian U16
POWERHOUSE Japan lived up to its pre-tournament billing as the team to beat in the ongoing Asian U16 Football Championship Group E Qualifiers 2010 at the Panaad Sports & Recreational Park pitch Saturday.
Japan team displayed precision passing and excellent command of the game as they blanked a tentative Philippines squad, 12-0, before a largely-awed crowd that came to find out for themselves the kind of stuff the Filipino booters were made of.
No. 14 Hayakawa tallied five goals while No. 9 Takumi Minamoto and No. 44 Takuya Iwanami added three apiece while No. 12 Shinjo Kosuke chipped in with one goal to complete the rout over the hapless home team. In Saturday’s second match, Indonesia and Bangladesh played to a scoreless draw giving the Negrense fans an idea of what to expect in the next few days in this Asian Football confederation (AFC) event being staged here in cooperation with the Philippine Football Federation (PFF) represented here by general secretary Cyril Dofitas and local stakeholders led by local organizing chairman Rafael Lizares, president of the Executive Village Football Club. Saturday’s opening matches were witnessed by a packed crowd at the Panaad main grandstand, including former PFF president lawyer Rene Adad, who braved the intermittent drizzle just to cheer for the RP squad that included in its roster four Negros Occidental standouts—Gerald Mark Layumas of San Carlos City, and Allen Shane Belera, Sidney Angelo Magbanua and Melecio Manuel Mentor of Victorias City.

Coach eyes Cebuano for RP team
AFTER three others got the chance this year, another Cebuano will get his shot at donning the RP football team’s colors.
University of San Carlos goalkeeper Paolo Pascual was invited to join the national training camp in Manila by goalkeeping coach Noel Marcaida and could see action for RP in the AFC U19 Championships in China next month.
“I like his attitude and he is also aggressive,” Marcaida told Sun.Star Cebu in an interview.
According to Marcaida, Pascual was recommended by his Palarong Pambansa teammates.
“He also has the height and if he just performs consistently in the training camp, he will have a chance to make the team,” said Marcaida.
If he makes it, the 5’11” Pascual will be the fourth Cebuano called up for national team duties this year.
Other Cebuanos who made it this year are Carmelo Genco for the Under 14, head coach Glenn Ramos and Christian Noel for the Under 16.
Pascual will be competing with three others for the starting keeper’s spot and has the slight edge because of his age.
“We also have a 6’1” keeper but he is still playing for the Under 16,” said Marcaida.
However, the coach said Pascual will have a lot of catching up to do since he will miss the first 12 days of camp. USC will still play in the semifinals of the the Cebu Schools Athletic Foundation Inc. this Sunday, while the camp started yesterday.
Marcaida said that head coach Lloyd James Lim will make the final cut on Oct. 22 and a day later, the team will fly to Macau for a five-day camp and four tune-up games against local clubs before leaving for China on Oct. 29.
