Archers, Army draw in UFL

Joey Villar - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - Green Archers United-Globe leaned on Jesus Joaquin Melliza’s second half goal as it salvaged a 1-1 draw with Phl Army FC in First Division action of the United Football League at the McKinley Hill grounds in Taguig Saturday night.

Down by a goal, 0-1, after Meliton Pelayo pierced through its defense with an 11th-minute rocket, the Archers calmly and patiently waited for their chance and when it came, Melliza quickly took advantage with that sensational equalizer.

It was enough to give Green Archers United a draw, which was equivalent to a point, that kept it at seventh place with four points on a win and a standoff against three losses while the Armymen nailed their first point of the season after four losses in row to get out of the bottom.

In the second division, Manila All-Japan shocked Navy FC, 2-1, to share sixth with Dolphins United FC with six points apiece on two wins and three losses.
