MANILA, Philippines - Global FC smothered a listless Green Archers United-Globe FC side, 4-0, to regain solo second place in the First Division of the United Football League at the McKinley Hill in Taguig City Thursday night.
Izzo El Habib (46th minute), Jeffrey Christiaens (58th), Denis Wolf (71st) and Carly de Murga (91st) delivered the goals for Global, which dropped the idle Loyola Meralco Sparks to No. 3 with 31 match points on 10 wins and a draw against a loss.
Stallion FC paces the field with 33 points on 11 victories against a defeat while Loyola has 29 points on nine triumphs and two standoffs against one setback.
The Archers remained at No. 8 with only eight points as they fell to their eighth defeat against two wins and the same number of draws.
Nomads FC leaned on Fidelis Nnabuife’s 47th minute rocket as it eked out a shock 1-1 draw with Kaya FC.
Kaya, bankrolled by LBC, took the early goal when Fil-Am Nate Burkey scored on the eighth minute. But Nnabuife struck on the 47th to equalize, eventually leading Nomads to escape with the draw.
The Nomads thus gained solo sixth place with 12 points on three wins and the same number of draws against six losses.
The Kaya booters improved to 18 points after posting their sixth draw this season to add to four victories against two setbacks.
