By: Leobert Julian A. de la Peña

Kaya FC-Iloilo broke the Green Archers United’s hearts with a scintillating 1-0 win thanks to a brilliant goal by Jordan Mintah.

Both teams were at par defensively and offensively, getting equal opportunities and doing a wonderful job defending their backlines.

Kaya captain Jovin Bedic led his team offensively only to be stymied by the Green Archers’ nagging defense.

Then came the clutch minutes: Mintah found a way to scoop the ball into the net of the opposing side in the 86^th minute mark.

Despite the physical play of the Green Archers, Mintah showed no signs of wear and kept his composure until the last 5 minutes to unleash that wonderful conversion.

The Green Archers had a chance to tie in the last two minutes when veteran midfielder John Celiz sprinted with the ball to the other side but Kaya deflected his attempt.
