Back to footie.

Ohhh… it feels just like last year. Nostalgic?
Yeah. I was bum back then and just having fun with all about football and some side stuff. Haha
*wishing…it comes back…
every thing was just simple…hmmm…*

I wanted so baddd to be in Iloilo…why? Haaay.

Well, the AFC Challenge Cup just ended last Saturday. And our Team, Philippine Football Men’s National Team, ended it with a clean sheet! Yay!

Philippines – 1
Brunei – 0
(should have gotten more goals if it wasn’t with the freaking lousy pitch!)

Philippines – 0
Tajikistan – 0
(great performance against a top team…dang err for that red card. But was a boost for us! Hahaha…ok now, so what really happened at the hotel lobby incident? Yikes…lol)

Philippines – 3
Bhutan – 0
(yay! but just wasn’t enough…)

Though we didn’t loose any of those games, it was still not enough to qualify to the next round. Dang frustrating! yes, just because of the goal difference. Oh well.

But I enjoyed all of those games. I even watched the replays just to see them all play again. It was also fun getting insights and updates of it online where people were all pumped up for our team.

And yeah…Aww… I just also miss seeing them play together. And it’s just so nice to see the development of the team and football in our country.
I really do believe that it’s getting there. Football is really peaking here. And that’s what we need to improve and be back on top again.
And oh yeah… lots of support is needed from everyone!

Ok…Just wanted some shout outs to…
Chippy Calindong…yeah! You really have good football skills. So fast …and great goal! Oh…and you deserve to be the captain!
Ali Borromeo, Anton del Rosario, Chris Greatwich and Phil G. (ang kulit! hehe) …nice game…slides…defense…and ball handling…and Chris, what can I say?! Gah! You’re really are composed when talking to the refs…Great leadership out there together with Ali.
Phil Y. and Chad Gould, thank you for all the effort and the goals!!! Made the game really exciting. Hehe
James…you were good out there. Though limited playing time, everyone can see that you did your best. Great cross passes and plays with your brother. And you are such an emotional player. Hmm..haha but that was needed. And oh yeah, pain free? Hope so…
Neil Etheridge…thanks for a clean sheet! First time that I’ve seen you with the team and I am impressed! You are young and you have a bright future ahead of you! Keep it up…and play for us again? Hehe

Ok now… I just miss footie again. And have to wait until October for the ASEAN?!
Oh…there should be more friendlies then…
well, I just hope to see you mates play again.
Go Philippines!
Go Azkals!
Go mates? lol

---
And oh…yeah…just knew what really happened with Phil and the LA Galaxy (that I also did a blog last time).
Dang…that was insulting. But I just hope that all the news should be laid out right away and not later on. So that people would know and not react the way they shouldn’t be. And Phil? (as much as people want you to be here) Please stay in Europe and try other teams out there for much training and experience. That would be good for you, for your football career and at the same time, it can help also our team whatever you get from there. Ayt? :)

all the best!:)
