I just learned that my brother-in-law and his famly is a big fan of football, and happens to be a big fan of team Azkals as well. They’re currently residing in United Kingdom. Kuya asked my husband to buy them Azkals jersey/shirts.

This afternoon, we went to Megamall to search for these items. We were told that original jerseys are being distributed by Mizuno. So, that’s where we headed first thing we got to the mall. And they were right. We were able to buy a jersey copy of the football team’s uniform. Yey!! It was for Php 1999 i think. But they don’t have other Azkal shirts so we had to search for other shops that offer football gifts or items. We landed on American Blvd store, and they have these nice Azkals shirts for guys and ladies. The shirts costs Php 500 each. Not bad! I like the design and the shirt itself. But since we’re on a tight budget, I wasn’t able to buy one for myself. We just bought 2 for Kuya’s wife and daughter.

I’ll probably just go back some other time to get myself Azkals shirts. :)

Recently, football became very popular in the Philippine sports arena because of the victory of the men’s national football team, Team Azkals. And our course, with the ladies out there, it’s not only the sports itself that they’re excited about, but it’s the members of the team that’s sending ripples through the community.

Football, or popularly known as soccer here in the philippines, has not really been famous in the field. However, team Azkals became a trending topic both on twitter and facebook during the semifinals of the 2010 AFF Suzuki Cup.

Now, almost everyone who follows the sports wolrd are also following football and the team.
Their win in the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifiers gave them a place in the second round when they beat Sri Lanka 4-0. Then they had to face Kuwait, who was a very good team, and the Azkals loses 1-2 and 1-5 on aggregate.

Despite this loss, supporters are still looking forward for the team’s future games. They will soon be facing 3 foreign teams, HongKong, Macau and Chinese taipei, in the 2011 Long Teng Cup. The competition will take place around late September in Chinese Taipei.
