The photos posted by “Pamatay Homesick” in his Facebook Wall give us an exhilarating feeling.
Filipinos in Kuwait came in droves, most probably took a day off from work, to give moral support to the team that is now giving Filipinos a new sense of pride.
“Pamatay Homesick”, an interior designer and project design coordinator, posted on his FB wall: “Binabati ko ang lahat, sa matagumpay na kaganapan sa larong football dito sa kuwait.Natalo man ang ating Azkals, nakita ko naman ang pagsasama sama ng ating mga kababayan dito sa kuwait.Mabuhay!”
He added: “Kahit tayo ay nasawi, tayo parin ang nagwagi!”
That’s the attitude.
The Azkals have already achieved something priceless – making Filipinos proud of being Filipino. That, by itself, is already a score.
