Archers forge draw with Nomads

RONNIE Aguisanda scored his first goal of the season as Green Archers United Globe hacked out a 1-1 draw against Nomads Auction Manila last night in the United Football League at the University of Makati.

The Far Eastern U defender struck a rocket of a volley that ricocheted off both posts before finding the back of the net in the 69th minute as Archers moved six points clear of last-place team Navy Red Juice.

Using crisp passing and smart movement without the ball, Nomads went ahead in the 63rd  minute through Nnuibife Fidelis, who got on the end of a Bahaeldin El-Habbib past to slot home from point-blank range.

The goal woke up Archers, who responded with skipper Tating Pasilan and Jess Melliza crafting a string of chances before Aguisanda found the equalizer

Nomads, last year’s second division champions, stayed in sixth spot with 17 points with three matches remaining in their schedule.

In second division action, Diliman Victory Liner rallied from two goals down in the second half to come away with a 3-2 victory over Socceroo.
