THE OPPOSITION: Stallion Laguna
After a jam packed month, we cap off July with a trip to Biñan looking to remain unbeaten in seven matches. Kaya Makati enters the game with confidence riding high, on the back of five consecutive wins, and holding two victories over Sunday’s opposition — Stallion Laguna.
But this is a much different Stallion side now, one that has won three games on the bounce and with new weapons in their arsenal.

Danger men
Gabriele Mascazinni:
The new 22-year-old Swiss striker has scored twice since his arrival to Stallion, making him a new weapon to be taken into consideration. As a brand new addition, his skill set is still relatively unknown, and will be an interesting new dynamic against a familiar opponent.
Jess “Jhan-Jhan” Melliza:
The former Far Eastern University star, and Green Archers United player has been on a tear lately, scoring three goals in the last three games. His pace and quickness with the ball makes him a handful for any defense.
Previous meetings:

Marwin Angeles fired in the solitary goal at the University of Makati
July 5 — 3-1 — Biñan Football Stadium
