RP TEAM ENTERS CENTENNIAL FOOTBALL SEMIS
Iloilo City, March 14, 1998 - The Philippine team went for a stirring 2-1 win over Woodlands Wednesday to enter the semifinals of the President's Centennial Football Cup at the Iloilo sports complex.
Egged on by a cheering crowd of 2,000 fans, the Filipinos gave their sharpest performance so far to post their second victory after losing their first match in Group A.
They edged out Chinese Taipei's Tatung, and wound up with identical 2-1 cards, but the hosts advanced by outscoring Tatung by one goal (4-3) in the eliminations.
The semifinal and final games will be played in Bacolod City this weekend.
