Philippines calls up 50 ladies for AFC Women's Asian Cup
The Philippine Football Federation, through head coach Ernie Nierras, has revealed the initial pool of players that will participate in the AFC Women's Asian Cup Qualifiers next month.
From the initial list of 50, it will be trimmed to a group of 25 (with 2 reserves) by April 20. The pool is a combination of players who were part of the team during the 2012 AFF Women's Football Championship (where they finished third in Group A and were unable to advance from the group stage), standouts from the UAAP, and those who participated in the US-based training camps.
Among those called up are skipper Marielle Benitez, AFF goalscorers Heather Cooke, Patrice Impelido, Sam Nierras, Marice Magdolot and Abby Komarc. UAAP Season 75 awardees Inna Palacios (Best GK) and Loreta Ladero (Best Midfielder) were also included in the call-up.
