READ: After 15 years away from 11-a-side football, Arkiteks United signed off its return to the Aboitiz Football Cup in emphatic fashion.
Arkiteks United blanked SportsGen International, 8-0, on Sunday, September 27, at the Dynamic Herb-Borromeo Sports Complex to close its campaign in the menβs open Division 2 on a high note.
Sydney Kamichi spearheaded the offensive onslaught with a hat trick, while Joshua Genson was named Man of the Match for his all-around performance.
The victory gave Arkiteks United a strong finish after a challenging campaign. The team finished fourth in Division 2 with six points from a 2-0-4 record.
Arkiteks United opened the tournament with a 3-1 victory over Magone FC but dropped its next three matches against UP Cebu, Lapu-Lapu CFC and San Roque FC.
Instead of folding, however, the team responded with its biggest win of the tournament in its final assignment.
The Aboitiz Cup marked a comeback of sorts for Arkiteks United, which returned to 11-a-side competition after a 15-year absence under head coach Arnie Pasinabo and assistant coach Michael Bonjoc.
Team manager Jhojo Partosa said the squad plans to regroup and add more committed players as it prepares for its next tournament.
βWe will regroup and add committed players for the team in preparation for the next tournament. Thanks to our sponsors and partners,β Partosa said.
A strong finish. A promising return. And perhaps, the start of something bigger for Arkiteks United.
