Emmanuel Robles, coach of the Futbulakenyos FC said the
victory was bitter sweet as it was their first game at home, but hardly watched
by Bulakenyos as football still have to gain popularity in the region.
Futbulakenyos first played in Tarlac and Pampanga where they
defeated Lighthouse Amihan FC of Olongapo
City , and Pampanga FC, respectively. They now lead the CLFL with 3-0 win-loss
card.
Composed of players from the Bulacan State
University , the
Futbulakenyos dictated the tempo of the game in the first 45 minutes and scored
two goals compared to Tarlac FC’s one.
In the second half, younger and faster Futbulakenyos further
increased the aggression on the Tarlac FC’s goal that saw the ball hardly
leaving the Tarlac FC’s half of the field.
Despite the aggressive attack, Bulacan players only made one
goal in the second has as Tarlac FC’s goal keeper was able to deflect some,
while other attempts missed the goals by only few inches.
“We need to train more and work on our plays,” said Robles
who expressed satisfaction on his players’ stamina and agility as they out-run
and out-play Tarlac FC players.
While only few watch the game, Futbulakenyos show some
shining moments aside from scoring three goals.
