AN undermanned Cebu Elite 23-Under Men’s team remained winless after suffering its second straight loss in the Philippine Football Federation-Suzuki Under-23 National Cup yesterday in Dumaguete City.
Following a 2-0 loss to Iloilo the other day, the Cebuanos once again faltered, with a 3-0 defeat at the hands of Bacolod City, after two of its players Jess Roy Melgo and Edmar Galacio were slapped with red cards in the second half of the elimination match.

“We were beaten by Bacolod. We were down to nine players because two of my players were given red cards,” Cebu Elite 23-Under Men’s team coach Eleazar Toledo told Sun.Star Cebu.
“Bad calls. We can’t do anything about it because the referee’s decision is final. Our chances (of entering the finals) are slim.”
Toledo lauded his team’s performance. He partly blames the loss to the referee’s decision to kick Melgo and Galacio out of the game.
The Cebuanos will miss the services of Melgo and Galacio in the third elimination match against Leyte today at 3 p.m.
Girls team
Cebu’s chance of advancing is bleak because only the top two teams will advance to the finals.
Meanwhile, the Cebu Elite 18-Under Girls team settled for third place in the 1st Gov. Marañon National Selection Tournament last week at the Panaad Park and Stadium in Bacolod City, after finishing with six points from two wins and two losses.
The Cebuanas beat Zamboanga, 12-0, and Dumaguete, 3-0, but lost to Bacolod City and Iloilo, 3-0 and 6-0, respectively.

Negros 1st U18 booters save Negrense pride
TEARS fell from the eyes of the young Negrense booters Friday caused by mixed emotions as the Negros 1st U18 squad won their division title and saved their younger sisters’ pride, following the Negros 1st U14 shinbusters’ defeat via penalty shoot-out in their championship match at home against Rizal Football Association (RIFA) for the 1st Gov. Alfredo G. Marañon Jr. National Football Selection 2011 at the Panaad Park and Stadium in Barangay Mansilingan, Bacolod City.
Regine Metillo scored all of Negros 1st goals to lead a come-from-behind victory over visiting Iloilo FA, 4-3.
The Warren Concepcion-mentored Negros 1st started the run with Metillo’s first goal in the 11th minute on a high ball that dropped just behind Iloilo’s keeper, booking a 1-0 advantage for the home team.
But the Ilonggas immediately pushed for an open field attack, isolating the Negrense keeper on defense. With the Ilonggas imposing a 1-2 pass inside the box, it gave Alina Rose Araneta the space to score an equalizer from the left wing in the 15th minute.
After ten minutes of battle for ball possession, Iloilo’s Barbie Ann Sobredo scored another goal in the 25th minute to put the Ilonggas on top at the end of the first period, 2-1.
At the start of the second half, the host-team started strong with several clear targets at Iloilo’s goal. But it was only in the 55th minute that Metillo scored her second goal, forcing the second deadlock of the game at 2-2.
Inspired by her twin goals, Metillo sizzled on offense and booted in another goal in the 61st minute to give the Negrense the advantage. However, Iloilo’s Sarah Brito silenced the crowd with her equalizer in the 65th minute, tying the game at 3-3.
Metillo took up the cudgels for the Negrenses lasses as she made the eventual winning goal for Negros 1st in the 69th minute and finally sealed the victory for the Negrenses.
On the other hand, it took all 11 booters from each team to take part in the penalty shootout for the championship title in the U14 girls division.
Negros 1st almost had the victory at hand before RIFA’s last kicker Shannon Alaine Arthur silenced the rejoicing Negrense crowd when she finally sent her team’s winning goal on the upper left side of Negros 1st keeper Eva Katherine Montelibano. The Negrenses lost by a point, 3-4.
Scoring for the RIFA were Arthur, Ma. Beatrice Isobel Velasco, Michaela Celine Adriano and Ana Betarice delos Reyes while February Gae a Saluria, Mikaela de Asis and Ma. Carmela Gavillo scored for Negros 1st.
Meanwhile, Davao FA grabbed the 2nd runner-up honors after defeating San Carlos Football Club. Nina Ricci Yanto (32’) and Veronica Anne Molano (71’) led Davao while Janice Samillano gave San Carlos its lone goal in the early 6th minute.

By Jerome S. Galunan Jr.
WILL the host-Negros 1st teams be able to preserve their Negrense pride today?
Two teams from the host-province of Negros Occidental, the Negros 1st, will vie for the titles in the U14 and U18 girls’ divisions in the championship matches Friday in the 1st Gov. Alfredo G. Marañon Jr. U-14 Girls National Football Selections Tournament 2011 at the Panaad Park and Stadium in Barangay Mansilingan, Bacolod City.
In the U14 division, Negros 1st will face tournament leader Rizal Football Association (RIFA) at 3 p.m.
The Negrenses earned the break for a rematch against RIFA after winning over Davao FA, 1-0 during the semi-final match Thursday. Mikaela de Asis scored Negros 1st and the match’s lone goal in the 65th minute.
Meanwhile, RIFA trashed San Carlos Football Club (FC), 3-0 behind the goals of Ma. Pamela Denise Diaz (16’), Ana Beatrice delos Reyes (58’) and Michaela Celine Adriano (69’).
Negros 1st on Wednesday bowed to RIFA 2-0.
In the U18 division, though Negros 1st and Iloilo FA are assured of the finals slot Friday afternoon, they have to play against each other at 8 a.m. Friday for their last assignment in the eliminations.
Both squads are on top of the team standing, undefeated with three wins apiece.
Negros 1st demolished Zamboanga, 17-0 followed by a win over Cebu FA (3-0) and Negros Oriental FA (NORFA), 5-0 while Iloilo blanked Cebu FA (6-0), NORFA (10-0) and Zamboanga (15-0).
In their match against NORFA on Thursday, Natasha Camille de Asis led Negros 1st scoring two goals in the 19th and 68th minutes. But before de Asis nailed her first goal, Carmela Marie Lizares started the Negrenses’ offense with a goal in the 14th minute, followed by Pearl Anjanette Aguilar’s goal in the 22nd minute that closed the first half with a 3-0 advantage.
In the second period, two more goals were added, courtesy of de Asis’ second goal and Jean Bridgette Kadil’s goal in the 77th minute.
The organizers disclosed that this annual selection procedure in the province will allow the national coaches to scout for competitive players to represent the country in the upcoming Asian Football Confederation (AFC) U-14 Girls Festival of Football scheduled June 8-15, 2011 in Vietnam.

Cebuanas rout Zamboanga, 12-0 in 18-Under
FOLLOWING a disappointing 6-0 loss to Iloilo City in the opening of the 1st Gov. Marañon National Selection Tournament the other day, the Cebu Elite 18-Under Girls squad redeemed itself yesterday with a 12-0 win over Zamboanga at the Panaad Park and Stadium in Bacolod City.
Cebu Football Association president Richard Montayre, who is acting as the team’s coach, believes the Cebu Elite squad lost its first match because of the players’ lack of chemistry.
“The team hasn’t gelled in the first game because they didn’t have tune-up games (in Cebu),” Montayre told Sun.Star Cebu.
The Cebu Elite was taking on home team Bacolod City at press time yesterday afternoon.
“It is important not to lose any more games. Because the top two teams will advance to the championship,” Montayre said.
The Cebuanos will face Dumaguete City in its last elimination match.
Montayre was forced to take the coaching job because of the lack of coaches in Cebu since the other coaches are already assigned to the different Cebu elite squads.
“All the coaches are already preoccupied. Others are having clinics. We have a lot of coaches but all of them aren’t available,” he said.
Montayre said he will be sending Cebuanos for a C-licensing coaching course in May in Dumaguete to increase the number of coaches in Cebu.
“We will send as many as we can. There is a maximum of 25 slots and we will be initially sending seven coaches. If there are still open slots, then we will send more,” he said.
The 1st Gov. Marañon National Selection Tournament serves as the selection process for the PHL 19-Under women’s team.

Ladies Field
By Henry G. Doble
FOR the first time a legitimate tournament to select the national team for women's soccer in the 14 Under and 19 Under category was held. It started Saturday at Panaad Sports Stadium here in Bacolod City.
Iloilo and Davao opened the games in the 19U and Negros Occidental battled Manila in the 14U in the second game. Host Negros Occidental-A Team was to meet Negros Oriental Football Association in the mainer.
Sunday's schedule is skills contest among 14 Under participants at 8 a.m. At 2 p.m. Negros Occidental A and B teams collide, followed by the Davao FA and Negros Occidental U14 match.
The Davaoenas 19 years old and under were to tangle with Negros Oriental FA for the main game of the tripleheader.
Tournament is set from April 24 to 28 with supervision of the Local Organizing Committee headed by Rafael Lizares, Jr. of the Executive Village Football Club.
General Secretary Cyril Dofitas of the Philippine Football Association said that from among these participants the national team will be formed. At least this will make it fair to all football clubs in the country that the selection was "palapit lapit lang.”
If you still remember, the U14 boys who were formed hastily in the AFC tournament last year that one was a pain to remember. That will not happen in the case of the distaff side.
Lizares and his group have one thing in mind - form a legitimate national team with members seen in actual competition. This is not just picking those closest to the association and club to wear the RP uniform.
From among these teenagers, the country will form, support and send them to international tournaments. Never mind if football is only number 2 or 3 sport in this basketball-crazy nation.
The football leaders have learned their lesson and we are happy to hear about it. Let the politicians do their work. The sportsmen are better left alone too to plan their destiny.
Perhaps the lady booters will make football officials and leaders change their mind. Hopefully those who cling to their posts and do not abide with the rules set by PFF and who have nothing to contribute to the development of sport can see their way out.
Have a happy feet, gentlemen.

Cebo Football - Davao loses in National Women's Football
By Charles Raymond A. Maxey
DAVAO City's campaign in the National Women's Selection Tournament got off to a bad start as the lady booters suffered a 0-1 heartbreaking defeat to Iloilo in the Under-19 division Saturday afternoon at the Panaad Stadium in Bacolod City.
The Davao booters played tough defense all throughout the match, but just could not stop Iloilo's strike during injury time to absorb their first defeat in the six-team field.
Davao Football Association (DFA) secretary and head of delegation Erwin Protacio said Davao was forced to play defense in the face of an all-out Iloilo attack. He said Iloilo made more attempts at the goal than Davao, with two of them hitting the crossbar.
Protacio said he is hoping for a big rebound for the team in the second match, which was scheduled late Sunday afternoon against Negros Oriental.

Iloilo-Davao, Dumaguete-Bacolod in today’s women’s bootfest
By Henry C. Villalva
U19 women’s squads carrying the colors of Iloilo and Davao, Negros Oriental and host Negros Occidental clash in Saturday’s opening matches of the 2010 National Women’s Football Selections Tournament slated to reel off at the football pitch of the Panaad Sports and Recreational Park in Barangay Mansilingan.
Three matches are scheduled immediately after the 2:00 p.m. opening ceremonies.
The first match at 2:00 p.m. is in the U19 category between Iloilo and Davao followed at 3:30 p.m. by the U14 battle between Manila and host Negros Occidental.
The day’s final match is again in the U19 division between host Negros Occidental “A” and neighboring Negros Oriental Football Association (NORFA) of Dumaguete City which is scheduled at 6:00 p.m.
The April 24-28 event is hosted by the Executive Village Football Club headed by Junie Lizares in cooperation with the Philippine Football Federation (PFF) which will be represented in this event by general secretary Cyril Dofitas.
The five-day competition aims to select the players who will compose the two national squads that will represent the country in two separate international tournaments this year.
The U14 national team will see action in the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Festival of Football in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam in June, while the national U19 squad will see action in the AFC Asian Women’s Qualifying event set sometime in November at a still undisclosed venue, with EVFC prodding the PFF to bid for the hosting of said event here in Bacolod City at the Panaad stadium.
The Negros Occidental U14 team is coached by Jose Reymando Baldava of Victorias City with Isa Carmona, daughter of former national player John Carmona as team captain.
The U19 Negros Occidental team, meanwhile, is mentored by head coach Warren Concepcion, with Paul Espinosa and Rinelle De Oca as assistants, and with Chermaine Guancia as team captain.
All matches in the five-day series are open to the public for free, organizers said.
