01:10 I think we've come to play, we've come to compete and ultimately winning games is what it's all about.

01:15 So we take tonight's performance and we take it as a positive.

01:18 We take all the good things and we look at all the bad things and try and get some learnings out of that.

01:22 And we look at our last game, hopefully not our last game, hopefully we make it out of the group.

01:51 In the post-match press conference held yesterday in Wellington,

01:55 National Team Head Coach Alistair Tchitch shared the journey of the Philippines in the World Cup from other countries.

02:01 New Zealand, I think it was their 15th or 16th match, so that's what, five or six World Cups.

02:07 You know, I was just watching Colombia and Korea before we left for the match.

02:11 And you know, the commentators said that they both had one win each.

02:15 And I know Korea has been to at least four or five World Cups and Colombia has been to three or four.

02:19 So to think that we've done it in our second match in our first World Cup.

02:23 You know, you can't really appreciate how far we've come back from in the pack compared to where those countries were.

02:30 You know, in terms of their football history, their culture, their investment in women's football.

02:34 Meanwhile, the Philippine Olympic Committee President Abraham "Bubble" Tolentino will present a gift of fate and God's gift

02:41 for the Philippines to win yesterday.

02:44 In his review, it took exactly two years from today for the Philippines to win the weightlifting pride,

02:50 which was won by Heidelin Diaz, the first ever Filipino to receive the medal at the Olympics.

02:55 It was only a few days away from the historic victory that the Philippines won yesterday

03:00 in the biggest football tournament in the world.

03:03 Aside from this, today is also the start of the one-year countdown for the 2024 Paris Olympics,

03:09 which was also set by the official start date of July 26, 2024.

03:15 God's gift of fate will also be accompanied by the Philippine athletes' determination

03:20 to be able to surpass the Philippines' 1-gold, 2-silver and 1-bronze finish in the Tokyo Meet.

03:26 The Philippines' participation in the Paris Summer Games next year

03:30 will also mark the 100th anniversary of the country's participation in the quadrennial meet.
