BACOLOD United FC defeated Dynamic Builders FC 4-1 to take the Negros Occidental Football Association MassKara 9-A-Side Festival game over the weekend at the Santa Maria Football Field in Talisay City.

Norman Fegidero, a former national team member and current head coach of the University of St. La Salle-Bacolod, led Bacolod United on the offense with a hat trick.

BG Products Manila, meanwhile, placed third while on the fourth spot was X Mail Malay FC of Malaysia, which went to Iloilo City on Monday for an exhibition match.

Other participating teams were Iloilo FC, Erco Cebu FC, Real Negrense FC, and Bacchus FC. They were required to have players 40 years old and above (born 1978) and two players born in 1983.

Event organizer Dave Javellana said they will try to invite more squads from around the country and abroad next year.

ā€œWhile we often hold tournaments for young players, these friendlies provide a venue for veteran players to enjoy the sport we love and further strengthen our partnership with our Asian neighbors,ā€ Javellana said./PN
