The Little Azkals under-13 team failed to enter the quarterfinals of the 2015 SuperMokh Cup after bowing to Japan’s Yokohama FC, 1-4, at the MSN Field in Bukita Jalil, Malaysia on Thursday.
The Philippine team, who was unable to register a win after four games, was overwhelmed by the Japanese squad during their meeting in the crossover playoff match.
The Little Azkals, composed of standouts from all over the country, bowed out of contention after losing to foes in Group D, among them Spain’s Rayo Vallecano FC, Suwon Samsung Bluewings FC of South Korea and Uzbekistan’s Bunyodkor.
In their first match, the Little Azkals took a beating from Uzbekistan’s Bunyodkor FC, 0-6, before suffering another loss to Spain’s Rayo Vallecano, 0-8.
The Philippines, in the group stage of the tournament, was again defeated in the last elimination stage match by the Bluewings of South Korea, 0-4.
Besides the Little Azkals, United Football League club Global FC’s U12 team is also representing the Philippines in the under-12 category of the tilt. The squad has been playing in Group D together with Sepahan FC of Iran, PSW Futera of Thailand, South Korea’s Haeundae FC and Bintang Biru of Malaysia.
In contrast to their older compatriots playing in the international youth tourney, Global FC is currently on top of their group with five points after a win and two draws.

Oh dear, our nations best against the clubs best only but lampaso pa rin tayo. Then sasabihin ng iba na "ok lng yan dahil international exposure ng mga bata." Kaya tayo malayo sa development dahil yung national youth teams lng ang binibigyan ng programs internationally.
ReplyDeletekung club youth team ang ilalaban mo against their counter part abroad mas malala ang scoreline and talagang malala pa sa rout ang aabutin.
Deletesa tingin mo kung hindi hahaluan ng national players yung youth club natin or hindi selection ng national players ang isasabak mo against powerhouse football clubng ibang bansa kawang-kawa na.
kahit konti maging competitive naman di ba yung ipapadalang youth team against best international clubs kahit maging olats ang resulta.
hindi po lahat ng players at may potential sa boung Pilipinas ay mabibigyan ng oppurtunities.
consider mo na yung limited resources, limited budget,politics, logistic problem, lack of corporate support and yung masyadong centralize ang system sa NCR kaya yung support mabagal makarating sa regional offices ng PFF dagdag mo pa yung kakulangan ng satellite office sa mga remote barangays sa Probinsiya.
dagdag ko po archipelago po ang Pilipinas and we remain a third world country kaya lower your expectation that we can send the best squad sa mga ganitong youth club competition abroad.
ReplyDeletewe have a very poor infrastrucre kaya logistically speaking mahal na ang pamasahe sa eroplano at barko para mag recruit and magsagawa ng tryout nationwide.
dahil yung mga potential homegrown talent na gusto mo ay hindi maabutan ng tulong yan kung mapapansin mo lahat ng malalaking corporate sponsors ay nandito sa NCR.
centralize po ang sistema dahil ang gobyerno ay Presidential Unitary Capitalism.
sa madaling salita ang lahat ng region sa boung Pilipinas ay nakasandal sa gobyerno ng Imperial Manila or tinatawag na sentro ng National government.
if Digong wins next year polls. we expect him to transform this republic from Unitary Presidential to Federal-Parliamentary.
Para lahat ng malalaking negosyo at industriya na nasa NCR ay mag relocate sa mga Probinsiya at magkaroon ng pantay na karapatan ang mga Foreign Investor na mag ari ng lupa and 100 percent ownership.
para logistic hindi problema dahil may dagdag na Airport,Seaport, bridges, infra development,agricultural rural urban and economically maging self sustaining ang mga Federal Provinces .
pagmayaman ang probinsiya and may sariling infrasctruces like high end football stadium kaya nilang bumou ng competitive and world class football club.
anong standout? no! its still politics.hahahahaha...basketball people.
ReplyDeleteSheesh, for compliance purpose only that's why they send the Global FC team of Dan Palami
