DBTC routs BJS, 7-1; other matches moved

THE DON Bosco Technological Center (DBTC) came up with a strong statement yesterday, whipping erstwhile undefeated Blessed John XXIII seminary, 7-1, in the Red Ribbon Under 16 football tournament at the San Roque Parish football field.

And it seems, lady luck is also siding with DBTC as the heavy rain poured after their game, forcing officials to abandon the second match between Paref Springdale and San Roque FC with 11 minutes left in the first half, and rescheduling the third match between Bright Academy and Don Bosco Boys Home.

It is the second straight postponement of both games, which was originally scheduled last Feb. 11 but moved to yesterday due to rains.

“Di na pwede, kay mag lutawlutaw na ang bola,” Paref Springdale coach Mario Ceniza said after their match against San Roque FC was abandoned with still 11 minutes to play in the first half.

The third match between Don Bosco Boys Home and Bright Academy was also cancelled.

In the first match, DBTC showed no signs of slowing down with a 7-1 demolition of BJS, a team that once beat them, 1-0, in the elimination round of the Aboitiz Cup last year.

DBTC now joins Hiroshi in the semifinals after topping its group with two wins – scoring seven goals in both wins.

Jonathan Caballero set the pace with a first minute goal while Paul Alcoseba added another in the 23rd minute.

John Peter Abangan got BJS in the game with a goal in the 26th minute before Bernard Buot broke their illusions of leveling the match with an impressive scoring outburst -– scoring a hat trick in a seven-minute span. Buot got his first goal in the 37th and banged in the third a minute before the half for a 5-1 score.

Dexter Dy, and Buot scored the final two goals in the second half for Don Bosco, who recently bagged the secondary football crown in the Don Boscolympics in Pampanga over Don Bosco Victorias.

mike, one small clarification lang. the red ribbon tournament is for Players14, not Under16.

the refs shouldn't have waited for the ball to start floating. once the ball cannot make one full rotation when it is tapped, then the match should automatically have been stopped or rescheduled.

you know what, Don Bosco Boy's Home - Liloan has a newly renovated full size field fully covered with grass and has a decent drainage system. why not play the postponed matches their next weekend so not to further delay the tournament.

ay kaning under 16 under 15 nila..gasunod ra sila sa PFF...ang ila basehan jud sa edad ang date of birth sa entries...pero ang name sa tournament usahay dili mo coincide sa ilang cut off date.

oopps, slight exaggeration there, sorry - the don bosco boys home field size is comparable to the ayala field, about 45mts x 90mts with full size goals.
