Sunday, June 25. 2006One of the greatest footballers ever was a Filipino My hand-wringing in an earlier post about Filipino indifference to the World Cup led my brother Kokoy to remind me that an early legend in European football was Paulino Alcantara (1896-1964), a striker born in Iloilo, still the Philippines' soccer hotbed. "In any other country, Alcantara would be a national hero," Kokoy writes. Like today's Asian superstars, he played professionally for a top European club, the first Asian-born player to do so. Scoring 374 goals in 375 matches, Alcantara remains the all-time top goal scorer in the history of Spain's FC Barcelona, one of the most storied and richest clubs in world football, and today the professional team of Ronaldhino, current World Player of the Year.   Paulino also played on the 1917 Philippine National Team responsible for the Japanese National Team's worst defeat ever, 2-15. (In the 2002 World Cup, Japan made it to the quarterfinals.)  What made Alcantara truly stand out as a football player to me was he interrupted his skyrocketing career for a year so he could focus on his medical studies. He was persuaded to return to FC Barcelona, and also played on Spain's national team (his father was a Spanish soldier who had been assigned to the former colony, Filipinas). _____________ A New York Times article today tried to explain the inventiveness of Brazilian players in a country that barely has a national sporting apparatus, unlike the European powerhouses: "Some of the country's most knowledgeable analysts see that (football) skill as a response to the confusion and unpredictability of daily life here, which has made Brazilians adept at what is called dribbling around rules and barriers. "'We Brazilians are accustomed to having to improvise, to being creative when we are in a tight spot,' said Tostão, now a popular commentator whose real name is Eduardo Gonçalves de Andrade. 'It's the foundation of our music and art, too, and that intuitive ability to sidestep the rules and improvise on the spot is what distinguishes the great player from the excellent.'" Sounds like the Philippines has some of the conditions for football greatness. But the soccer passion in Iloilo has to spread to places like Tondo. Trackbacks

Yep. That does sound like the Pinoy. We really have to wean ourselves from the Americans but since that is a tall order, I was rooting for the Yanks to do well in the World Cup in the hopes that their success would make them embrace the game, and if the Yanks are doing it... You people in media have the power to make this happen. Why not a feature on sepak takraw and the few remaining Pinoys playing it for Saksi or I-Witness? Once more Pinoys are exposed to the possibilities of using your feet in sport, they might try football too.

That is a great record almost 1 goal every gae every played. i wonder how the new players do compared to that record.
i just had interest in football lately and i was wondering why we filipinos are so hooked up with NBA, a tournament which we will never have a part ever, instead of with the world cup.
i was really surprised to know about paulino alcantara. thanks for the info. Hi Howie,
Thanks for writing about Paulino Alcantara's achievements. My brother and I have known about Paulino's success in football for several years now since we are avid football fans. I'm glad more and more Filipinos are finding out more about Paulino's legacy. Like Paulino, I was born in Iloilo as well. I learned how to play football as a kid on the fields of the University of San Agustin, La Paz, Jaro and Barotac Viejo. My family moved to the US when I was 15. I played high school and college soccer in the States, but I wasn't good enough to play professionally. I'm now 41 and I no longer play football. I now support the US National Team. I wish the Philippines would dedicate more on football and maybe one day we can qualify for the World Cup. Viva las Filipinas! Hay futbol! Hay pasion! Interesting.
It says on the Wiki entry that he was born to Spanish parents. Does he have any Filipino blood at all? Hi Ala. My vague understanding is that he had a native mother, evident in his dark indio features. But what does being Filipino mean anyway? Aren't we by definition, like Australia, a melting pot? My friends, the Pardo de Taveras, are of Spanish origin, but have always called themselves Filipino. The facts are that Alcantara was born in Iloilo and even played for the Philippine national team.
Btw, nice family picture in Newsbreak. ; > I didn't know we had a family picture in newsbreak.
I took the cover photo  Hehehe.This is an excellent article!Casque Beats By Dre
Casque Dr Dre écouteurs Beats écouteurs Beats By Dre Beats By Dr Dre To be technical about the designation of "Filipino." In the old days, during the Spanish colonial times, Spaniards born in Spain were called "Insulares", the Spaniards born in the "Las Filipinas" were called "Filipinos", while the indegenous people were called "Indios." Later, that designation changed to anyone living in the Philippines regardless of race. There's no doubt, Alcantara was Filipino. I happen to have a couple of friends who are 100% Spanish from Iloilo, but they consider themselves Filipinos. If you meet them, you couldn't tell they're Filipinos, until they open their mouths. Ilonggo gid. By the way, its called "football" in Iloilo.

i really enjoy watching the like of ronaldo and other football player, but it is my first time to hear a filipino football player. Im proud to read it, and hoping that our sports official make a program for our future football team.
Filipino have the quick and the stamina. Though it may be good that people should know about anything filipino on this blog, it has to be put in the right perspective.
I know that Howie is a journalist but he is not a football enthusiast. so gathering facts without passion will miss out a few things. So, to put it in perspective, paulino alcantara is NOT one of the greatest football players in the world. Born of a spanish father and ilonggo mother. he is the highest scorer of FC BArca ever and that record will probably never be beaten. the greatest players in the world would be pele, maradona, cruyff, beckenbauer, zidane. Paulino Alcantara is not even close. Though he might be one of the best goal scorers of his time (deceiving looks and a killer shot at goal), he is not ONE OF THE GREATEST FOOTBALLERS in the world! Don't get me wrong, I love the Philippines (and I am going to die here), and I love Paulino Alcantara! he is our only connection to football recognition. somehow we feel that we belong. here is another perspective -- in hoping that the philippines will someday be a in the worldcup or asian champions at least, we have to change from the passion of basketball. And if that miracle happens, it will take 40 years to be a force to recon with. And only then, will we have a chance to make it to the world cup. in other words, we do not stand a chance. we are the only american loving country in SEasia. All the rest - Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand - play football. They are die hard football fanatics and they can't even join the world cup! By the way, please don't call it soccer. that term is for people who cannot play football. Just look at the americans. Thanks for the comment (are you a cousin?). I know I'm not a football enthusiast as much as others, but I am a sports enthusiast and I love sports debates. One common debate has sports greats from one era being compared to greats from another. We will never really know how Alcantara would fare on the same pitch with Maradona or Pele. All we know is that, even just based on goals scored alone for a premier team, Alcantara must have been pretty damn good, at least for his era. He certainly has less fame than the greats you mentioned, but does fame equal talent?
This is a bit like saying Pete Rose was a better baseball player than Ty Cobb who lived 60 years earlier, or Jerry Codinera was a better player than Moro Lorenzo ever was. What are the parameters? It's really moot and acdemic, but fun to debate nonetheless. Greetings all pilipino football lovers & new converts. Im an Aussie (its FOOTBALL ! not soccer!) married to a wonderful pilipina from mindanao. We sponsor kids there to play the Beautiful Game. The village now has 3 high schools playing - one also has a girls team! Also, there are 4 primary schools playing - my nephew's school has 4 teams! They are now affiliated with the Sultan Kudarat FA & start competition soon. It all started when my 9 yo nephew told me "he liked football'. The beauty & fun of football has done the rest! The children are having a great time & their parents are thrilled. I found this page as i am preparing an article on Alcantara to tell the children about a gteat pilipino & a great footballer.
I'm thrilled to read all your positive comments on the game i play, coach & love with a passion. The Philippines CAN re-discover the Beautiful World Game. My wife was born in Iloilo & we will be back. Perhaps, we shall catch up on the park ! Until then enjoy! Gaffer The Aussies call it soccer, too. And it took a dive by Grosso to eliminate them out of the World Cup in the 'Round of 16.' Not too shabby.
But as already mentioned in the comments section of a previous post, we Pinoys have less reason to call it soccer since we dont have a "Pinoy Rules" football like the Aussies and Americans do with which to distinguish it by calling it soccer. Nice site, cool background. Larina.
I am from Madagascar and bad know English, please tell me right I wrote the following sentence: "An introduction to outdoor patio furniturebuy outdoor carpets online in safety with these useful tipschoosing the correct indoor outdoor carpetcommon outdoor carpet buying mistakesgarden furniture is a must if you have a good sized garden."  Thanks in advance. Larina.sorry for the late reply Howie. Yes we are from the same blood line as all Severino's come from silay. You have a valid reason for saying that Paulino Alcantara may just not be recognized for his achievements.As 356 goals in 357 games will not be beaten by any football superstar no matter what generation. But do you think the name pele, maradona, eusebio, cruyff, beckenbauer, ronaldo, zidane will get lost 200 years from now? True, good for debate. Yes, true aussies call it soccer and very unfortunate how they were eliminated in the literally the dying seconds of the game vs italy. some may call it a dive as well, but from all the dives, this would be the most legitimate I guess. ha ha. remember that the ref and linesmen have only one chance to look at it. and it looked reall without the replay. But going back, the people that call it soccer have more popular sports in their countries. in this case, aussie rules, rugby, cricket. In the US - baseball, american football, hockey. to put it in perspective, soccer will only get popular in these countries if they win the worldcup or have more players play in top clubs in europe. in other words, we will be dead by then. My friends and I have world cup withdrawals. there is nothing to look forward to except that euro club season will start late aug. hopefully a balance of la liga serie a and epl on tv. epl dedication sucks!
the socceroos will be back!
this is pathetic. we actually have to root for other countries because we have no chance whatsoever. Give please. Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.
I am from Congo and now teach English, give please true I wrote the following sentence: "Schinkel; gourmet meats ump modifieds." Thank  Donald.My cousin in the states who call it soccer was the one to call my attention to this Filipino great. Didn't "soccer" evolve from Association Football, and Assoc (thus Soccer) Football?
Greatest footballers? I guess we'd have to construct a football team, down to strikers, midfield and defenders and goalie. Who's to say, for instance, is Beckenbauer greater than Zoff? Why only 5 greatest? And why were Radski's choices limited to players starting from the 60s? My childhood idol was Alfredo DiStefano. Thanks again. Thank you for this piece on Paulino, maybe this will encourage us to stop treating basketball as THE game.
the socceroos got screwed by the azurris, imho.
its a shame that football will never be big in this country. its a shame that football will never be big in this country..
^^it has been BIG but not that famous i say. played myself when i was in grade school to college with the best of the best, san beda, ateneo, don bosco, uste and even local chinese schools here and it was hell BIG! you see, football here live and die like local mahjong clubs or jueteng infested barrios and with each game played, as we players play, the fans too live and die after each game. one thing though that RP has than any other country here in ASEAN, we play the game, we start young, we end the game regardless of scores - we play old. nice job..knew about paulino just a few months ago...
we filipinos must concentrate on sports that don't require height like football.. we dont have a chance in bsketball or any other sport that requires height..we have the built like the brazilians and we only need to dedicate more to this sport to be succesful...i play for central philippine university in jaro,iloilo.and i dont have the height but i still can compete eith bigger guys.. Hey guys keep up the good work on the awareness. I've been researching now for almost 3-4 years. I already made 2 tributes and gather photographs & video from F.C. Barcelona with help of Graemme McKinnon former Cebu Coach. If you guys have time please check out my latest
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHnNAo4oiOc Great job howie, he is a forgotten filipino hero??
About the Debate "Paulino is not one of the greatest,, only a lead scorer". He played for a team (FC Barca) where the likes of Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Ronaldinho and even Maradona has played, he still holds the record for most goals. He might not be remembered like Pele and Beckenbauer (which he should be), and considering that there were no ESPN and Comcast cable or direct TV back in the day. Its a simple obvious debate, he played for FCB at age 15, and to score as many goals, and a hundred years later when football has evolve into the Joga Bonito Era, he still holds the record, and that guy is Pinoy. (ive seen FC Barcelona play here in Los Angeles, and in the magazines that they were giving out, Alcantara's name was mentioned as one of who pioneered Barca, and was described as quick and to be nicknamed "romperedes" or "net breaker") Paulino Alcantara should get what he deserves and that is to be one of the greatest player football has ever seen. Hi Howie,
Yes it is time that Filipinos today know of how great we can be in the line of Football. It is the most beautiful sport in the world. I find it pathetic that most pinoys can't see that. Being blinded by their idealistic dream of being in the NBA. Our country has an average height of 5'6". So what's there to further explain? sports are no longer a sports,it is associated with politics,hooligans that results in mass injuries but still its so funny to watch both the games,drama those people involved in it.
Even if Paulino has a spanish blood,it is still a pride of both RP/Espana a hero for Spain and Philippines.Kaya pala guwapo si Paulino kasi mestiso. national hero? huh? Sorry, but 'any other country' would NOT declare anyone a national hero for a silly sport. Look at Manny Pacquio--- he's a dull brained semi-literate knuckle-dragger that can physically assault other people well. Somehow, that makes him a hero? We call him hero when really its the recognition the country gets.... somehow the populace thinks they are somehow equals on an international stage just because a single person from the RP can beat up other people.
Either way, its just unintelligent to declare someone a hero for a sport. OFW are heroes,why?It feeds the 80 millions populace that doing nothing but wait for remittances.
Pacquio was name Pambansang Kamao,not because he beat those mexicans but because he brought big bucks to countrries coffer.Save a few people from getting hungry. Why Erap was called a "Big Joke" because he was duly elected but then he step down just because of EDSA2,nasaan na ang b*y*g ni Erap?If he believe he is innocent,he should never stepdown nor give-up his throne. Kung buhay si FPJ,he would not let Gloria insulted him nor embarassed him.Tiyak isangbala lang si Gloria....sabagay sa pelikula lang pala hindi natatalo ang bida. Hey. The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive.
I am from Congo and now study English, please tell me right I wrote the following sentence: "Do sterlings storm window replacements wisconsin think replacement windows central texas her hair." Waiting for a reply :-(, Kaliska. Yeah! it is so overwhelming to know that even though the Philippines does not qualify for the world cup, one from our natal land went out there and just played for glory.. i know that he would serve as a great inspiration for all the Filipinos most especially the football enthusiasts.. shocking to know that he is from Iloilo as i am and i also play football back in highschool and currently in college. wait, it doesn't stop there, we have the same birth day.. october 7, (1988)...haha! funny how this is also true, I'm currently using the brown and gold Ronaldinho studs which was designed when Ronaldinho was still in Barcelona FC... not that I'm bragging about our similarities.. it's just inspiring how he made a difference... salutations to my new "Futbol" idol.. Uswag Iloilo!
It's good to know that 'once upon a time' we had a place in internationall football, even though it was only through him. He is truly a great and inspirational player who continues to inspire both old and new players. Let's hope that football will soon take the spotlight in our country. It would be nice to have barangay soccerfields/futsal courts too; rather than basketball courts only.
Howie,
If one of your future trips takes you to Barcelona, please visit the Stadium and Museum and if possible, get a copy of Paulino's memoirs and share it with the rest of us football fans. Paulino Alcantara is honored at the FC Barcelona website : http://www.fcbarcelona.com/web/english/club/historia/jugadors_de_llegenda/alcantara.html PAULINO ALCÁNTARA Paulino Alcántara (Iloilo, Philipines, 1896 – Barcelona, 1964) is the highest goal scorer in the club’s history with 357 goals in 357 games. His characteristic deceptive appearance made him popular with the fans to the point of being the first star of the club in the golden ages of the twenties, alongside Samitier, Zamora, Sagi, Piera and many more. His ability to hit the most powerful of shots crossed frontiers on the 30th April 1922 when, in a game between Spain and France, he hit a shot so hard that it ripped right through the net. For many years after, children from Barcelona would recall that moment and would wish to do the same as the man from the Philippines. He hung up his boots on the 5th July 1927 in order to become a doctor. However, this was not his goodbye to football. He was on the board of directors between 1931 and 1934 and Alcántara was one of the first footballers to write memoirs of his playing days. - Seasons at the club: 1912-27 - Games played: 357 - Goals Scored: 357 - Trophies: 5 Spanish Championships (1912/13, 19/20, 21/22, 24/25 i 25/26) 10 Catalan Championships (1912/13, 15/16, 18/19, 19/20, 20/21, 21/22, 23/24, 24/25, 25/26 i 26/27) Don't you recognize that this is high time to get the business loans, which will make you dreams real.

Paulino alcantara has less media exposure back then, kasi nga wala pa masyado media like tv, radio nung time na yun, unlike the time of Pele, Maradona, in 70's and 80's..kumbaga underrrated lang xa..thats why kunti lang nakakilala sa kanya..same with Justin Beiber walang ka talent talent pero sikat kasi nga may media exposure...

I agree that the findings of the study are not entirely a surprise. Similar studies have been conducted before and consistently show the same results in that many employers (including minority employers) show preference on racial lines at all stages of the hiring process.Tissot Lady Classic Watches
Fortunately, such discrimination is already illegal; however, it is difficult to pinpoint violations because the law requires that an offense be intentional and demonstrable. In a 2002 study conducted by two professors from the University of Chicago and MIT that utilized racially indicative names (i.e. there was a "Brad" and a "Tyrone") submitted with resumes of equal qualification. The study recorded how many of the applicants received callbacks or interviews based on resumes where the only significant difference was in the name. In findings consistent with this new Princeton study, it showed that applicants with "white-sounding" names were 50% more likely to receive a call for an interview than those with "black-sounding" names. What's more interesting in the context of this new study involves the apparent lack of impact of the credentials of applicants on the stigma of being an ex-convict. To bolster the comparison between blacks and white ex-convicts offered by the Princeton article, the former study found that the positive impact of the(identical)credentials of those with "white-sounding" names was far greater than that of those with "black-sounding names" on the chances of getting an interview. Just an interesting comparison I thought was poignant to this topic.Tissot watch prices It seems, however, that studies like this do little to address the issue of racial discrimination in hiring practices beyond shining a glimmer upon it every five years. Greater accountability of employers through rigorous audits of this kind with actual penalties for violations would perhaps be prudent.Tissot watches sale Nous avons pris notre mieux pour fournir longchamp prix le plus bas, sac Longchamp est celebre marque, design avant-gardiste ne vais pas vous laisser sortir de la mode!Longchamp Paris handbags and fine leather accessories, located at 139 Newbury Street Boston.Initialement fabrique sac Longchamp revetements en cuir pour les tuyaux.
