Azkals fan groups issue call for help as pathetic turnout mars Suzuki Cup matches

From Reuben Terrado

ONE of the Philippine Azkals' biggest fan groups has called on fans to troop to the Philippine Sports Stadium and support the national team’s campaign in its make-or-break match against defending champion Thailand in the AFF Suzuki Cup on Friday.

Ultras Filipinas leaders admitted they were saddened by the pathetic turnout during the Azkals' thrilling 2-2 draw with Indonesia on Tuesday, where home fans were even outnumbered by the Indons' travelling supporters inside the Bulacan, Arena. 

“Matagal na namin gusto ‘yung ganitong atmosphere na merong parang World Cup ng Southeast Asia. At the same time, malungkot dahil hindi ganoon karami ang nanonood,” said Leo Salayo, one of the leaders of Ultras Filipinas.

“Sana sa Friday, marami. Hindi natin alam kung anong susunod dito. Mabubuhay pa ba ang football o mamamatay? ‘Yun ang feeling namin,” he added.
On Tuesday, declared attendance was a paltry 2,068 spectators, just half of the turnout for the opening match against Singapore.
Indonesian fans occupied one area of the stadium and even unfurled a giant flag in support of their team.
“Of course, on our part, parang sampal din sa amin ‘yun,” said Salayo.
“Nakakalungkot lang dahil konti talaga,” said another leader of the Ultras Filipinas, Jerry Valecruz.

The location of the Philippine Sports Stadium, around 20 kilometers away from Metro Manila, has been blamed for the poor turnout.
Located at the Ciudad de Victoria, the Iglesia Ni Cristo-owned venue is not accessible by public transportation, although the Philippine Football Federation (PFF), anticipating the problem, provide service buses for fans.
