RP settles for 5th in Team Blitz in 3rd Asian Indoor Games

Whoaaa!! Our team almost made it in the 3rd ASIAN INDOOR GAMES - TEAM BLITZ if not for the loss to Iran in Round 9.

But still, I'm proud of the Philippine Team for their highly competitive performance in this team event.

Just look at their performance:

Round 1. WIN over Nepal (4:0)
Round 2. DRAW with Qatar (2:2)
Round 3. WIN over Vietnam (3:1)
Round 4. LOSS to China (1:3)
Round 5. WIN over India (3:1)
Round 6. LOSS to Kazakhstan (1.5:2.5)
Round 7. WIN over Uzbekistan (3.5:0.5)
Round 8. WIN over Japan (4:0)
Round 9. LOSS to Iran (1.5:2.5)

Finishing 5th overall in a 15-country battlefield is not that bad. Beating chess powerhouse India made it sweeter.
