Jang on target twice for dominant Pachanga eleven

MANILA, Philippines — Substitute Jang Ho-yoon struck twice as Pachanga PLDT Home Fibr scuttled Pasargad with a 4-1 win Sunday night in the United Football League at Emperador Stadium in Taguig.

The Korean scored all of his goals in the second half after Jayson Cutamora and Gerardo Valmayor gave Pachanga a comfortable 2-0 lead at the break. But the match will be remembered more for the four red cards—two for each team—that were issued by the referee.

Pachanga was in control throughout as it extended its unbeaten streak to six matches, including four wins in a row.

Cutamora opened the scoring with a chip halfway through the first period, but Pachanga striker Shayan Jafari inexplicably stepped on Mohsen Akbari Sarabi to receive a red card and reduce Pachanga to ten men.

Pasargad’s Jerome Cuyos was sent off for a second yellow, while teammate Jolomi Promise and Pachanga’s Davide Cortina were sent off with straight reds within ten minutes.
