It was a strong start to the matchup with Shirley\u2019s quickly stirring the pot and scoring a goal just a minute in from the cleat of Jeno Pino. Paire tried to weave through and create some plays and it paid off with a conversion in the 17th by Casmiro Cosmes to knot it all up, 1-1.<\/p>\n

It was anybody\u2019s game at this point as they both tried to break up the tie. Both teams attacked and barraged each other\u2019s territory with no result until Shirley\u2019s Jpiel Calsita put them up, 2-1, in the 30th minute. Pino then ensured them some insurance goal just a couple minutes later for a 3-1 game.<\/p>\n

Alyssa Borlongan didn\u2019t take long to find the back of the net and get Shirley\u2019s on board in the 22nd minute for a 1-2 game. Shirley\u2019s tried to rally and had some chances to equalize, but Kanoa\u2019s defenses held to maintain their one goal lead. Then, Cali Cabrera extended their lead in the 37th and made it 3-1.<\/p>\n

A couple minutes later, Shirley\u2019s Princess Gariguez landed a goal and cut the lead to one once again, 2-3. However, Shirley\u2019s weren\u2019t able to further produce as time ran out and lost by one.<\/p>\n
