Ceres – La Salle FC started their campaign for the 2016 AFC Cup trophy with a 2-2 draw against the visiting Selangor FA from Malaysia last night before an estimated crowd of 8,000 at the Panaad Stadium in Bacolod City.
Coming out strong and aggressive in the first 10 minutes of the match, home team Ceres – La Salle dictated the tempo with Filipino-German Stephan Schrock establishing his presence in the middle while attempting shots on goal.
Schrock's 18 th minute strike that defied Selangor's defense had the crowd roaring.
But with its decades of football history, Selangor could not be easily thwarted. Focused and committed, Mauro Olivi booted in the equalizer in the 34 th minute as he blocked Ceres' goalkeeper Mike Casas clearance and sent the ball rolling into the net.
“It was an individual error. But this is football and everybody commit mistakes,” Ceres head coach Franklin Muescan said during the post-match press conference.
More important he said was the way the home team bounced back to salvage a draw.
The blunder distracted and slowed down Ceres' offense as the score was tied 1-all at halftime.
Finding their rhythm in the second half, Selangor found themselves ahead in the 60 th minute as Hafiz Kamal converted a penalty by sending it over the wall and sailing past Casas' outstretched hands.
With the time running out, Ceres remained on the hunt for its second goal. A pass from Schrock to Manny Ott in the 77 th minute had the crowd on their feet but the shot was wide, while a cross from Patrick Reichelt to Bienvi Marañon in the 79 th was saved by Selangor keeper Norazlan Bin Razali.
With three minutes left in regulation, Schrock's cross from the left found Adrian Gallardo who completed the play with a header for a 2-2 draw.
With both teams getting a point each for the draw, Selangor head coach Zainal Abidin Bin Hassan said it was good enough for them.
“We missed our target of getting 3 points but it was a tough match. Ceres is a very good team and they keep on playing good football. It was a good game for both teams,” Hassan said.
For Ceres, coach Muescan said addjustments will have to be made in time for their away games on March 8 in Bangladesh and March 15 in Singapore.
The Negros-based team will have its second home game in the Group E Qualifier on April 12 against Singapore on April 12 at the Rizal Memorial Stadium and back to Panaad on May 10 against Bangladesh.*NAB

Parang foreign Club yung ceres andaming mahirap ibigkas ang kanilang pangalan. kunsabagay mga foreign born pinoy sila at si Casas lng talaga ang homegrown doon at. Parang hindi na kailangan kumuha pa ng foreigner sa Ceres pero nag add pa ng Koreano, mga Spanish at irish players ano ba yan. Tapos proud pa sila na taga Negros pero ang line up nila isa lng pinoy. Mabuti pa ang Selangor FC 5 players ang foreigner nila at wlang foreign born malaysian. Yung mga tao sa Panaad halat binigyan ang majority ng tickets sa mga Yanson para mapuno ito. Half heardted lng kasi ang attachment ng taga Bacolod at negros dahil halos foreign born an mga players nila . Wala nang proud player na galing University of St. La Salls o produkto ng Negros. Binibigyan lng ng maling pag asa ang mga kabataan sa Negros na gustong maglaro sa ceres dahil hindi ito nag aalaga at nagbibigay exposure sa mga homegrowns. Sa madaling salita wlang grassroots ang Ceres -La Salle FC at gusto nila instant success kagaya ni Palami sa Global. Mabuti pa ang Kaya FC at least 3 homegrowns ang nasa starting eleven nito.
ReplyDeletedami reklamo .. gawa nlng kayo ng team na purong pinoy .. if sabi nyo magaling talaga ung d nkuha s ceres or ibang club.
Deletekailangan pa ng ilang years para maka gawa ng magaling na home grown player.. kailangan solid grassroots.
meron naman ibang team sa ufl na majority mga pinoy eh, kita nyo naman d pa kaya..
if ayaw nyo ng mga half breed players wag kayo sumuport sa ceres or ung mga teams na maraming half breed.
Typical Pinoy mentality ka cgegreklamo boy, Ganun talaga mga sagot nyo because the truth hurts d ba? Ikaw yata ang wlang alam sa football , dahil hindi talaga mag improve ang ating mga homegrowns kung wlang exposure sila sa mga pro clubs. Mga manlalaro nating nasa college ngayon ay nawawalan na ng pag asa makapaglaro sa national team at pro leagues dahil mga pinoy na hilaw na ang paborito ng mga coaches for an immediate success and hindi nila alam it kills the ambition and enthusiasm of many kids dahil parang discriminatory na ang dating ng PFF at UFL at pati na rin ang pag iisip mo dahil isa ka sa hindi bilib sa kapwa mo Pilipino na dito lumaki at natutong maglaro ng Football. Kung iisipin mo wlang produkto pa ang Pilipinas sa football na naglaro sa ibang bansa pero yung ibang bansa andami at dito pa ang mga rejects naglalaro. Mga utak kasi ninyo mga Slaves pa rin ang dating hanggang ngayon bilib pa rin sa ibang lahi palagi habang ang ating sariling tunay na kadugo ay hindi ninyo pinapansin.
Deleteang daming satsat. hanggang dito nag rereyna reynahan ang mga feeling expert with all their analysis and observation.
Deleteokay so anong maitutulong niyo para mabago ito? satsat din? give a concrete example if possible. hindi yung dapat gawin ng pff o ufl dahil sabi niyo nga wala silang pakialam. kayo mismo. anong maitutulong niyo para mabago ito? tama na ang reklamo. keeping on complaining why the sky is blue won't make it red tomorrow.
Well Fuck you !! This is football blogspot and every football fan has the right to express his/her feeling towards the state of Philippine Football. These are all observations and suggestions so why make a statement that we are complaining. it just shows you don;t have the balls to debate here or even make some clean facts or ideas about the improvement of the beautiful sport. All you knew is you cannot answer any complains and maybe you are working ng the Philippine Fucked upped Football? Maybe you are one of those men who are having a man crush on the fil foreigners that's why your hellbent on defending them. Your quotes are pathetic and irrelevant on your statement.
Deletebakit di na lang ikaw maglaro sa ceres?
Deletesa mga commento mo di ka isang fan ng football kundi isang walang kwentang tao
Bakit sa PBA di ka magreklamo ang daming fil-foreign dun?
tsaka isa pa magmula ng dumating mga kastila dito sa pinas wala nanag purong pinoy
kahit apelyidong CASAS ang galing din sa mga kastila
madaming dahilan kung bakit ka galit kina shrock ott atbp marahil ay:
-football rejectionist ka dahil palpak ka sa football tryouts
-ultrapure bloodline nazi ka pero wala namang basehan
-puro ka reclamo wala ka namang ginawa para mag improve ang football sa pilipinas
-sobrang galit ka lang sa ibang lahi pero wala namang basehan
antayin mon na lang lumaki ang all-local little azkals kaya lang mga 10 taon pa
tsaka teka, bakit sa europe mixed blood at naturalized latinos at africans sila dun pero wala namang reklamo? REklamong di daw mabanggit mga apelyido wala namang ganun dun
May punto naman siya. Importante naman talaga may hometown hero para tangkilikin ng home crowd.
DeleteWala siyang punto to begin with kundi puro reclamo at kagaguhan lang
DeleteSa UEFA di use hometown heroes dun pero tinatangkilik ng mga tao mga star players ng representative cities nila kahit di mabanggit o masambit ng maayos apelyido ng ilan
Ceres players are playing for their club, TO REPRESENT BACOLOD and to make Negros proud and not to 'eke out' a hometown hero like the reclamador bastard wants
Ceres FC does have a grassroots program..DFL is being used to scout players which nilalagay nila under NOFA U teams..Casas is a Nofa player..ang hindi man makuha ng Ceres for the NOFA teams, gets scouted for the UAAP teams sa Manila..so all in all win win situation for the players who get scouted..And sana wag mag expect na may makukunat tayong homegrown players ngayon since football resurgence sa Pinas is less than a decade..And speaking of homegrown players na naglalaro abroad..marami..Escalante brothers from Bacolod used to play sa NASL..A teammate of mine here plays for a Saudi club now..Teammate ko nung HS sa DBTI plays for a team in New Zealand..although hindi malalaking teama, at least they play professionally there
Deletesustainable ba ang ginagawa ng ceres? proud ba kayo na Ceres team pero isa lng ang tunay na produkto nyo at nasa twilight na si casas sa edad nya? mag isisp nga kayo? Hindi porket european standards ay bagay sa atin dapat ibase sa kultura natin huwag copy cat palagi like Mr Anonymous25 February 2016 at 08:11 had said. Problema kasi sa taga Bacolod puro tikal lng wla namang sariling asenso sa mga players nila ngayon. Hindi naman taga bacolod yung nasa sub at reserve list nila. Kayo yata ang mga bastardo eh kung sino sino gusto nyo na player basta galing imported. Mahiya naman kayo!!! Saan na ang pride ng Negrosanon at Bacolod? DFL ba kamo? school based naman yan at para lng sa may kaya. Wla yatang alam yang nag design sa Grassroots nyo mga tsong!!! Tingnan nyo Mindanao muntik pa kayong matalo sa U22 Smart Cup dahil mga mas bata pa sila at edad ay 16-17 pa lang tapos wlang import na foreigner pero kayo apat ang kinuha nyo. Paano kung wla yun? mananalo ba kayo? Shame on you guys!!!Pera lng meron kayo dahil Yanson ang presidente pero pag kinuha ang pera yung talents nyo dyan sa kangkungan ang patutunguhan...
ReplyDeleteIsang problema yan. Kung mature na yung transfer system siguro pwede na yun dahil kahit saang club pwede ang players. Sa europe kasi developed na yung transfers at yung mga club may grassroots. Hindi dahil sa iba ang kultura natin, kundi pa ready diyan.
DeletePero sa ngayon talaga mahalaga talaga yung grassroots. At dun sa foreigners, di kaya mga exchange students lang talaga yun?
Immature comment. Men like you are the reason why I would rather be Micheal Jackson and laugh at all your endless banter. To correct you my dear sir, DFL is school-based because that is where some kids first learn the game. If you want to improve the game, then start a program in your barangay. And some schools joining are public like Mabini ES, R. Magsaysay ES, etc. These schools must be very rich indeed. And as for foreign students, I know Harunori Aoki is a student of La Salle Bacolod.
DeleteAnd as for pride, it is not made overnight. Someone has to build the foundation, then the rest will follow. It is like the chicken-or-egg problem. In managing a club, you need to win. Who would like to look on a losing team?
I know sir that you are passionate in our sport, but being an armchair critic will not change anything. And worse, you are merely shouting at a wall(pun intended). The best way to promote the game? Buy a ball and kick it, with your family, your friends, anyone you meet. Then the kids will follow.
(I will give the benefit of the doubt that you are not a fan of a club penalized for violations in a match against a club influenced by the patron saint of teachers, but please do not reply to this flimsy comment. You are only making a fool of yourself, and this is the only time that I will post a comment in this page, or in this post at least, because that is what gentlemen do. If indeed you reply, please spare me the profanities, it only shows how immature you are.)
Hasta luego!(moonwalking)
P.S. Think before you speak.
