Weekends are for football and finally, the Philippines are catching up with our neighbors here in Southeast Asia. We’ve got some exciting information on the events you can go to this weekend!
Philippines Football League– Saturday, Biñan Football Stadium and Rizal Memorial Stadium
With the clubs getting a feel of the competitiveness in the league, this Saturday’s matches could not be more exciting. Starting off at 3:30 PM, Stallion Laguna FC will host Global FC in their first encounter in the league at the Biñan Football Stadium.
On the other hand, the historic Rizal Memorial Stadium will a double header starting off at 4:00 PM. The first game will see current league leaders Kaya FC-Iloilo square off with top-flight football returnees Philippine Air Force FC.
Ever since the two met in the United Football League, it have been intense. They’ve been going at each others necks and it’s always a physical game whenever these two clubs clash.
Following that intense match, Ceres-Negros FC shifts their focus to defending their PFL title as they will face Mendiola FC 1991 following their AFC Cup Zonal semi-finals exit.
Since the opening of the league, this will be the Busmen’s fourth match and they will be looking to propel themselves into a monstrous goal difference after they’ve demolished their previous opponents.
Mendiola FC 1991 is yet to win their first match in the league and it would be sweet if they can score an upset against the two-time defending champions of the league.
