THE Abellana National School (ANS)-Pomeroy slipped past Don Bosco College, 3-1, to finish No. 1 in the bracket in the 17-Under division of the Cebu Amateur Football Club (CAFC) 10th National Interclub Invitational Tournament at the University of San Carlos-Technological Center field.
ANS Pomeroy finished undefeated in three matches and will next face Sacred Heart School-Jesuits (SHS-J) in the semifinals today.
The other semis will pit Colegio del Sta. Rita, which ousted Paref-Springdale, 3-1, against DBC.
With USC already out in the running in the Men’s Open, Prince Anthony suited up for Francis Ramirez’s squad and his presence help create scoring opportunities for ANS Pomeroy.
John Melgo struck first in the 13th and Rogelio Castellon doubled the lead in the 25th.
Melgo banged in his second in the 63rd before DBC finally got to score with Junjauy Arrizabal’s goal in the 70th.
In the other game, Springdale scored first but failed to hold on to its lead.
John Andrew Amigo struck four minutes into the match before John Shale Ponsico evened the count in the 11th.
Elton John de Arce gave the visitors the lead in the 59th and Diomar Caruscay scored the insurance goal in the 70th to hand Springdale its second loss of the tournament.
Red card
In the Men’s Open, CAFC will be playing minus keeper Benjamin Sanchez and defender Jack Reston against FC Inter Cebu in the semis today.
CAFC defeated the University of San Jose-Recoletos, 2-1, on goals by Arnie Pasinabo but it came costly after keeper Sanchez was red-carded for violent play.
Sanchez brought down a USJ-R striker in a one-on-one, while Reston, who already has one yellow, was cautioned for rough play early in the match.
In the second game, FC Inter Cebu rested its key players and lost to Doraemon, 8-0.
Mitsu Tsunakiri and Epifanio Ynot had three goals each for Doraemon, which will take on USJ-R today in the semis.
