Another Aboitiz day, more blow outs.

THE ABOITIZ Men’s League Division A is turning out to be a boring affair after another set of blowouts yesterday at the San Roque Parish football grounds

Hiroshi FC, the Aboitiz Cup winner last year, toyed with Magone FC, 15-1, while Crazy Horse blanked Danao FC, 12-0.

The last game managed to have some semblance of a competition as Rugmo Debra fought Don Bosco Alumni FC to a 1-1 draw, while in the lone Division-B game, San Roque FC defeated Queen City United, 3-0.

“Way ayo ang mga duwa karon sa Aboitiz (There aren’t any good games in this Aboitiz Cup),” Hiroshi assistant coach Francis Ramirez said.

Martin Bontia scored the opener in the ninth minute and things got worse for Magone as Junard Aguilar scored four times, while Harold Buot had a hat trick and captain Voltaire Montebon scored twice.

On the other hand, former national team mainstay Joshua Fegidero scored five times in Crazy Horse’s rout over Danao.

Six minutes in, Fegidero struck, and a minute later, Excildo Dosdos added another before Jan Michael Abellana made it 3-0 in the 11th to put the outcome of the match beyond doubt.

Meanwhile, SRFC defeated Division-B leader Queen City with Marlon Rey Baring scoring in the fifth minute for an early lead. Eleazer Toledo added another in the 39th while Genard Aller made it 3-0 in the 73rd.

i don't think skills ra ang problema sa gulf in class between the teams. this has something to do with tactics, conditioning and overall form of the team and players. klaro kaayo ang training sa hiroshi. does this mean nabyaan na ang uban teams ani? if so, the other teams can't just sulk in a corner. they have to shape up (find sponsors or train harder, whatever it takes to improve). the last thing football in cebu needs is for losing teams to get discouraged and disband. sayang ang effort

Mother Nature plays spoilsport

The heavy rains spoiled the debut of defending champions Don Bosco College yesterday, cutting short the match between DBC A(?) and Bright. Hopefully, it will be a sunny Sunday. P.S. It will be interesting to note, how DBC divided its teams for the U12.

The failed U23 experiment

THE only positive thing that we can take in that loss against Timor Leste was that the U23 squad looked good in blue. And Ebong, too. The Blue-Haired fanatic whose voice we all heard on TV was fantastic. The team? The result? To be perfectly blunt it was a scrappy game from a scrappy team that seemed to treat the SEAG as a vacation, or a chance to gain more Twitter followers. (Yey, I can tweet the team apology first!) Going into the match, almost every fan who paid attention knew that we needed to win. Unfortunately, it seemed the players were operating on a different mindset.

Fair Play: The Devil's Advocate and CFA vs. CAFC

(This is my Fair Play column for Sun.Star Cebu on Feb. 6) I GOT an interesting e-mail the other day about the consequences for teams that withdraw from PFF-organized national tournaments and its corresponding sanctions. I guess, it’s time to play Devil’s Advocate. For PFF-organized events, there are four types of withdrawals—after confirming participation but before grouping or scheduling takes place, after regional finals but before grouping in nationals, after the grouping in the nationals, and in the course of the national competition.
