PRE-GAME OVERVIEW: SATURDAY 8:30PM RIZAL STADIUM MANILA MONTET FC VS MENDIOLA
Mendiola FC currently holds the 8th position in the league. With an impressive tally of 11 goals in just 4 games, they’ve demonstrated prowess in attacking. However, their defensive line has struggled, conceding 8 goals in the same period.
They started the season well with a big 7-0 win against the Philippines Air Force, but then lost narrowly, 1-0, to Davao, a strong team. Their third game against Don Bosco was a surprising loss 4-2. They also lost their last game, 3-2, against Manila Diggers, who are also strong this season.
As we prepare to face them tomorrow, we anticipate a challenging match.
Notable players to keep an eye on from Mendiola FC include the young Japanese talent Hiromasa Ishikawa, who has already netted 3 goals in 3 appearances this season at only 21 years old, alongside the Iranian duo of Sajad Mohebi and Hamed Hajimehdi.
Sajad Mohebi, 21 years old also, and 3 goals in only 2 games played is a real threat.
Hamed Hajimehdi, Mendiola’s number 10 is an experienced player who has already 3 assists and 1 goal in only 4 games.
While Mendiola FC is the clear favorite for this game, the blues of Manila Montet FC are determined to provide stiff competition.
