MANILA, Philippines – Two games, two one-sided victories — in its third and final installment, the Clear Dream Match 3 on June 7, the biggest football all-star game in the country, will finally allow brothers James and Phil Younghusband to settle their rivalry.

Taking on the challenge of growing football in the Philippines, Clear, the No. 1 Anti-Dandruff Shampoo for Men, partnered with Manchester United and the United Football League. Given the partnerships, Clear Brand Manager Drew Copuyoc said, “Clear Dream Match 3 will be the most competitive game yet, as only the best football players in the Philippines will get to participate. Returning with its strongest lineup of players, this year’s voting pool will consist only of the top 50 players (statistically) in the UFL.”
