Kaya FC secures second round
Male’, MALDIVES – AFC Cup debutants Kaya FC of the Philippines secured a place in the second round of the AFC Cup as the runners-up of Group F following a goalless draw with New Radiant.
Hong Kong’s Kitchee comfortably seeing off Singapore’s Balestier Khalsa 4-0 in Tuesday’s other Group F tie to wrap up top spot, Kaya claimed second place and booked a date with defending champions Johor Darul Ta’zim in the Round of 16.
New Radiant came closest to breaking the deadlock in the half hour mark when Izzath Abdul Baree’s header inside the six yard box was off target after a perfect cross from Rilwan Waheed.
Five minutes before the break Rilwan Waheed saw an effort just outside the box fly wide of the right post.
In the 50th minute, Shirmar’s left-foot shot went over the cross bar on the edge of the area.
Seven minutes later Sadin made an effort on target but was blocked and keeper saved the cross when Nuhaad put it into the box from the rebounded ball.
Kaya FC coach Joel Villarino said after the match that their objective was to win the game.
“Our objective was to win the game, but based on the result of the other game we tried to control the game and finish with a draw; it was a good result.” Villarino said.
“Our problem is finishing and we need to correct it. The second round is a tough one and it will be stronger than the group stage, so we have to prepare for this.”
On the other hand his counterpart Stoykov said he was happy with the result.
“One point is a good result and I am satisfied even though we are out at the group stage,” said New Radiant coach Iordan Stoykov.
“I want to congratulate Kaya for their qualification for the first time in their history. Every nation is progressing and we are all improving.”

of the Philippines overwhelmed Ateneo, 4-1, Thursday night capped a dramatic season by clinching a 17th UAAP men’s football crown before a huge crowd at Rizal Memorial Stadium.
The star of UP’s impressive rookie batch opened the scoring in the 28th minute, before striking twice in the second half to put Ateneo to the sword as the Fighting Maroons reclaimed the crown they last won in 2012.
Daniel Gadia was also on target for UP with a quality strike in the first half, before Ateneo pulled a goal back through Mikko Mabanag.

But a stellar second half performance finally got the job done for the Maroons, who drew inspiration from the death of teammate Rogie Maglinas all season long. Maglinas passed away due to cancer last February.
“This win is for Rogie,” said UP coach Anto Gonzales. “He inspired us to do special things this season.”
UP mixed flair and creativity up front with Gadia’s steel and composure at midfield and its well-drilled defence to pull off one of the most dominant victories in the UAAP finals.

The men’s victory capped a sensational day for the Diliman-based school as the UP women’s side also coached by Gonzales claimed its first crown at the expense of fancied La Salle, 2-1, in the finals.

The Lady Maroons soaked up the pressure in the first half, before turning their attack up a notch in the last 45 minutes.
On her final game for the Lady Maroons, defender Molly Manalansan went home with the season MVP honors.
With the win, La Salle remained stuck at eight titles, wasting an almost perfect season when it faltered in the finals.
Miyagi scored the opening goal with a tap-in after Gadia’s effort was saved by Ateneo’s goalkeeper Kenneth James. Gadia doubled the advantage six minutes later with a brilliant individual strike, before a mistake from Ace Villanueva allowed Mabanag’s free kick to roll past the line as Ateneo trimmed the deficit, 1-2, at the half.
