Azkals Philippine National Team vs vs Korea's Icheon Citizen FC friendly match. January 21, 2012 Attended with Syvic, Inigo, Maureen, and Menno at my first soccer match Icheon was the 3rd Division champions in South Korea and won the match with the Azkals in the shootout, after a 1-1 tie in regulation. Thanks for the game tickets, Mau. :) Rizal Memorial Sports Complex Pablo Ocampo St. Malate, Manila Philippines Manila, Philippines- On January 21, 2012 at 7:00pm in Rizal Stadium when the Azkals take to the field against the South Koreans from Icheon in the Kia Rio Cup, there will be history made. Not only because it's the first time the Azkals has faced an experienced South Korean football club, and not only because this marks the first time in over 50 years that Philippines has faced against South Koreans. And not only because Koreans living in Philippines will join in with their neighboring Filipinos in a packed sports stadium rooting for their countrymen in a football game. But history will remember this game as also when Korea came to help football grow further here, as well as a cause to help the needy. A time where the two different countries could embrace each other further. The game bringing together Filipino and Korean football players is the brainchild of ABS-CBN Sports Vice President Peter Musngi and Dragon Promotions CEO Cindy Lee and its founder Charlie Williams. This event is also made possible by the cooperation and help of The Philippine Football Federation <b>...</b>
