Gilas Pilipinas beats Congo by 22 | coach Yeng Guiao isn’t bothered by President Duterte’s comments

Gilas Pilipinas Men head coach Yeng Guiao isn’t bothered by President Duterte’s comments about the team’s chances in the upcoming FIBA World Cup.

Guaio adds the team sees the comments as a challenge to perform well in the tournament.

======================================================
A HIGHLY-motivated Gilas Pilipinas squad jumpstarted its European training camp with a rousing win over Congo, 102-80, on Wednesday (Manila time).

Big man Andray Blatche spearheaded the national team with 25 big points while Japeth Aguilar added 22.

Mark Barroca added 16 as the entire 10-man field of coach Yeng Guiao had two points each or more.

The victory over the Congolese, ranked 82nd in the world, came a few hours after President Duterte mocked Gilas Pilipinas, saying it does not have a chance winning its first game in the Fiba World Cup against Italy.

“Problema unang kalaban natin Italy. Wala, talo tayo, walang laban,” Duterte said Tuesday night while speaking during the oath-taking of Filipino-Chinese businessmen in Malacanang.

“We will lose dito sa Italya. Ang lalaki kaya niyang mga %@#$ na yan,” added the Chief Executive.

The President however, is expected to watch and cheer the national team during the World Cup as the tournament coincides with his fifth visit to China for a meeting with President Xi Jinping.
