Will our own Philippine Team Azkals become football freats? There is so much hoopla about the Azkals and they have so many fans all over the country. They have ignited the fire among young people to have an interest in the sport.
But they are yet to win a major game. I guess they need more practice in the sport. Or I dunno. I am not really an expert. The very little I know of this ball game is the fantasy football trophies in a computer game.
I really do wish that more sportsmen will be raised up in this country. But not only that, I wish that the government will sustain them after their glory has faded. They spent their youth honing their skills in practice but they are not taught like skills like finding jobs and managing their money.
As for the Azkals, they have a long way to go. But as they inspire young people to follow them, I hope that the government will also look into this and support more athletes.
