Ateneo De Manila University vented its ire on National University, 3-1, to seal its first win in the University Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) Season 80 men’s football tournament on Sunday at the Rizal Memorial Football Stadium in Manila. The defending champions erased an early deficit as they also rebounded emphatically from a season-opening 0-1 defeat to University of the Philippines (UP). It was good that the team got a comeback win after that heavy loss to UP,” said Ateneo head coach Jaypee Merida. Meanwhile, De La Salle University is gunning for a second win in as many games against Adamson University while surprise cellar-dweller FEU is squaring off with bounce back win-seeking University of the East at press time. Tomas earlier fought its way back from a goal down en route to securing its first win at the expense of Ateneo, 2-1.
