About a Certain Cristina




Boouuyaah !



That was sometime February of 2009,  when I first witnessed, and quite fortunately -> was able to "immortalize somewhat"  Cristina de los Reyes.

I was hired by Ernie Nierras to cover two friendlies between the RP-U15 Women's Team and a visiting women's team, from Guam  {I forget the name of the team}. 

The first match was held on Valentine's Day [Saturday evening] at the ULTRA pitch while the second was held at the Ateneo College pitch at Katipunan.


-February16, 2009 - Ateneo College Field

- For the Win ! - 


As I recall, the girls from Guam, scored once, while our girls scored twice.
Cristina drilled in the second - winning - goal, as the Guamanian keeper faltered
{image above}.

- First Blood -
Cristina de los Reyes scores on a penalty
{UP-1   DLSU-0} 

{FYI, Sarah Castaneda scored the equalizer for DLSU} 

More than seven years later !, during the Winner-Take-All UAAP Season 78 Championship Match - Cristina, this time, helped UP win its First Ever! Women's UAAP Football Crown !

Sta. Clara, tho, delivered the winning goal {the 2nd one} {Final was -2-1 -> UP !} - { but we all know that - to get to Goal #2 you have to score Goal #1 first }.

You Deserve This !!

Boouuyaah !
