PFF Men's national championships Day two

FAVORITEs Bacolod City and National Capitol Region got their second wins in contrasting manners after the second day of the Philippine Football Federation Men's National Open Championships in Iloilo City.

Nofa squeaked past Zamboanga City, 1-0, while NCR flexed its muscle with 10-0 whitewash of Iligan.

Host Iloilo also gave its homefans something to cheer after a 5-2 win over Baguo while North Cotabto continued its winning ways, beating Masbate, 5-2.

Today, North Cotabato will face Bacolod while Baguio takes on Iligan. Iloilo will also take on defending champion NCR in the final game.

The NCR-Iloilo match has an interesting subplot -- NCR has 12 Ilonggos on its team. (from Philfootball.info forums)

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.
