Younghusband
brothers, Azkals, not Nepal put on a show
by rick olivares
Phil and James Younghusband turned the
international friendly between the Philippines and Nepal into their own
personal showcase during an emphatic 4-0 win at the Rizal Memorial Football
Stadium last October 11, 2011 that closed the Azkals’ 2011 campaign.
Phil scored a brace (’17 & ’55)
while James (’29) barged into the score sheet with a cracking volley to put the
visiting Gorkhalis, as the Nepalese team is nicknamed, in a deep 3-nil hole.
And for good measure to show critics that he can pass the ball some, Phil
latched on to a Dennis Cagara cross in the 89th minute before
setting up a trailing Matthew Hartmann who could do no wrong with his scorcher
of a goal.
