Kaya Iloilo sweeps Group B in Copa '21

MANILA – Kaya Iloilo pipped Mendiola with a 6-0 beating on Wednesday night to complete a sweep of Group B action in the Copa Paulino Alcantara at the PFF National Training Centre in Carmona.

A Jovin Bedic brace in the first half set the tone for the inaugural tournament champ even as the club netted three goals in each of the two halves to seal the top seed in its group ahead of the semifinals next week.

Bedic capitalized on an erroneous Mendiola attempt to keep the ball out of his reach and quickly raced inside the penalty box to open the scoring for Kaya Iloilo in the 11th minute.

THIRTEEN fishermen were rescued in two separate incidents in Marinduque and Batangas after their vessels capsized due to turbulent waters and strong winds caused by tropical storm “Mina.”

Reports reaching the main headquarters of Coast Guard commandant Admiral Ramon C. Liwag said the vessel with 12 fishermen on-board were on their way to a fishing venture when they encountered big waves at about 3:10 a.m. brought about by the storm at the vicinity waters off Elephant Island, Lipa, Buenavista.

A certain Liticia Orbe appeared to the Coast Guard Detachment Cotta to report about the incident, it was learned.

The detachment then relayed the information to the Coast Guard Station Lucena, which alerted the Coast Guard Detachment Gasan to first verify the said report.
