Players 10

The Players 10 finals ended in a shootout between Pepito FC and Springdale, with Springdale winning by just one goal.

I've seen a lot of shootouts but boy that shootout was one of the best.

Sringdale's Antonio Eduardo Rafols and Pepito's Kevin Delantes put on a show.

Rafols saved all but one Pepito kicker, and that one miss he had, he guessed and dove on the right direction and even managed to tap the ball, but not hard enough.

In the sudden death shoot-out, Rafols saved all three, including a dive to the right on the third kicker. Delantes was just as impressive, punching out two shots.

The rest of the P10 champions are Anton Alvarez, ericles Dakay, Jose Rafael Lipardo, Lorenzo Ugarte, Donn Ijo Clarito and Enzo Ceniza.

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.

A Pinoy played for Real Madrid? (updated)

Image
HERE'S an interesting photo submitted by Asian Football Confederation women's committee member Cristina Ramos. Its taken at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium and shows a gallery of the great players who played for Real Madrid. And guess where one of them is from? Jaron Genota said the only information he has managed to gather is that the player's name is Teus. I hope to get more information on this guy in the next few months. Ms. Ramos, who was also in the organizing committee of the Fifa U17 and U20 women's world cup, said the picture was part of Real Madrid's exhibit on the universality of their players. From Ms. Ramos, "Mike, the photo of the Filipino player was part of the display entitled "The Universality of our Players" in the Real Madrid museum in Bernabeu. It's funny that they acknowledged him but did not name him. Only those from countries which participated in the World Cup were named."
