MANILA, Philippines - Team Socceroo unleashed a pair of goals in the second half as it turned back Forza FC, 2-1, to remain on top of the Second Division in the United Football League at the McKinley Hill grounds in Taguig City.

Team Socceroo thus kept the solo lead with 15 match points on five straight wins while Forza stayed at second with 10 points on three wins and a draw against a setback.

Joining Forza FC at second is Union Internacional Manila, which routed Agila FC, 2-0, for 10 points.
