PHI/IRQ - Philippines prove too quick for Iraq to catch
 
NHA TRANG CITY, Vietnam (2nd FIBA Asia U16 Championship): For the second game running, it justg needed one bright spark for SEABA U16  Philippines to maintain their unbeaten status – this time for a 82-69 win over Iraq, which gave them a place in the semifinals.
Rodolfo Alejandro was the forefront of the Filipino offense yet again, as the leader of an otherwise all-round attack eight out of coach Olsen Racela’s 10-man rotation scored to put Philippines massively ahead at the end of the first quarter.
That lead gave the cushion for Philippines to even go a little profligate faced against Iraq’s late third quarter which brought the WABA U16 champions close as six points at the start of the fourth.
Karrar Hamza fired back-to-back three-pointers to cut down the deficit to 10 at the end of the third quarter and Ismael Ismael led an Iraqi rally that took them to 60-66, but Philippines tightened the screws once again.
And with Iraq running up their team fouls a little too quickly, the end-game fouls only made Philippines victory look bigger.
Michael Javelosa (pic above) with 14 points was Philippines’ highest scorer.

SEMIFINALS: (October 27 / Thursday)
Semis#1: Japan vs. China (6:00pm)
Semsi#2: Philippines vs. South Korea (8:00pm)
