[XComPointer]

hey... he's the highest goal scorer in the club’s history with 357 goals in 357 games and he hit the ball very hard so it ripped to the net.....

[Yakuza03]

I forgot to mention. He's one of the reasons why I'm a fan of FC Barcelona!

[Yakuza03]

Although I am an American citizen in the Philippines, my parents are Filipino, and knowing that at least one Pinoy in the past played for the best team in the world, in my opinion. Even though I'm not a professional soccer (football) player, everyday I train myself when the time comes. If I can't play for the Azkals, at least for a football club here in the Philippines. Though it is reviving here, we can never forget that Filipinos have a root in football, due thanks for Paulino Alcantara.

[draxe101]

even in US basketball is not their most popular sport... its baseball & american football basketball rank only 3rd :))

[try2luke]

if we need new alcantara ,,,we need new Rizal Stadium too...hehheh Mabuhay

[espallardoerwin32]

FOOTBALL IS FOR PHILIPPINES NOT BASKETBALL BECAUSE WE ARE SMALL IN THAT SPORTS!!!!. BASKETBALL IS SUCK HERE IN PHILIPPINES.

[balzz4345]

[Alkalameko90]

soy español y estuve en filipinas en 2007 y allí no es muy popular el fútbol ke digamos, es mas normal ver a personas jugando al baloncesto.. pero la verdad eske me sorprendió saber ke el máximo goleador de la historia del barcelona sea filipino, la verdad eske esto sorprende xd

[RepublicadeFilipinas]

¡Un saludo amigos! Desde el @ Canal de Filipinas en idioma español.

[lovehtk1]

I'm so proud to of you!!! Wow!!!! I hope another Filipino will repeat what you've done or even get close to what you've achieved in football! Go Azkals. I hope that many Filipino children will get to learn and love this sport. It's meant for our physique. If we want to be really good at something we should start young. Hello, Filipino children and adults as well to support them and cheer for them!!!

[bonntroy]

NBA is an American culture, while Football is an international phenomenon. Damn! World Cup people!

[harperjohnlive]

I'd also like to read his memoirs ... does Barca have them?

[zizouefa]

Scored 357 goals in 357 games in FC barcelona? WOW!!... Football is FOOTBALL not soccer.. Some fucking filipino's why they called SOCCER!!!

[uncanny15]

FILIPINOS are somewhat americanized...so that's why SOCCER is sometimes used..

[mhc4413]

watch your mouth, your mother could hear you! the world is full of cultural and language differences...futbol in espana, football in england, and soccer in the USA. Educate and enlighten yourself...

[dizzyabella]

excuse me??. FYI.. FOOTBALL is an English term and SOCCER the american term for football. PLEASE.. if u didnt have enough education in respecting other nationalities or let's just say other people PLEASE just shut your mouth and one more thing.. I think you have to check on the history and dictionaries. and try visiting England and america to see the difference.. AiGHT??

[iLove2JacketXD]

[AznWorldMusicLegend]

@iLove2JacketXD Well the americans are very hard at work in introducing American Football in the Philippines nowadays

[NUFCFTW9]

@AznWorldMusicLegend fuck american football REAL FOOTBALL is what we should play not shitty american sports

[Kartilya14]

Filipino Pride. C'mon my fellow filipinos! we need another Alcantara!

[futbolmanutd]

i'm proud to be a Filipino.:) imagine, Paulino being Barca's all time leading scorer, wow. i play football as a keeper, and it saddens me that Filipinos love basketball more than football.:(

thank you FCB for giving honor to him.:)

Visca el Barca!:)

there is also a filipino player currently playing in La Liga, Julio de Guzman. he plays for Deportivo la Coruna.;p

[seriouslyZonaD]

@futbolmanutd

but bro he joines the national spanisg team

im sorry for breaking ur buble.

keep playing footbal!

[pinkknight9]

@seriouslyZonaD but in the charts of the FC Barcelona players, he is considered as estrangero or foreigner. There was the Philippine flag beside him. Even the Spanish consider him Filipino.

[XComPointer]

@futbolmanutd i cant find julio de guzman

[jayzee360]

@futbolmanutd Sucks that he can't play for the Azkals, though.

[FCule]

im half filipino/spanish.. cool :D

[PinoyBoy2007]

Many people don't know about this story... many people,when they hear about whose the greatest goal scorer... or should i say greatest player, they always think of Crobaldo,pele,maradona,etc.... but they are wrong.... paulino alacantara,a native of philippines "pinas", scored 357 goals in 357 games in FC barcelona.... that made him the all time leading goalscorer of barca... forget etoo, forget messi, forget deco, forget ronaldinho... im so proud of being a pinoy.... hehehe....PILIPINO !!!!!!!

[lifeiscool60000]

Go Barca... We are always longing for a First Filipino in NBA. But we overlooked the fact that there are lots of Filipinos playing in Major League baseball, and hall of famers in Boxing, Billiards, and a lone one in Football.

Mabuhi ang mga lahi nga Bisaya!

[ConanyKull]

Dicen que en un partido amistoso España-Francia el delantero Paulino Alcantara marco un gol y rompio la red todo un antecedente de Ronald Koeman.

[dirknowme]

mu na yah!!! pinoy nah!!! astig ay!!! pilipino pa ang top-goal scorer sg FC Barcelona..... hahahaha.... atig!!! la ko kbalo bah.... bg.o lng gid...

[xpressivist]

the filipinos' national sport/game is 'sepak takraw' or 'sipa' in tagalog, which means that we filipinos are really good at kicking balls. my countrymen, let's stop being a lap-dog of the americans. let's stop playing basketball. it's an idiotic sport for us. we should go back playing the beautiful game and start kicking some balls out there in the football field.

[mildheat65]

Now, who's that English dude who moved L.A. who gets paid tens of millions and has not done jack for his new team?

[mildheat65]

ILONGO PRIDE!!!!

Indi lang Pilipino, Mas importante, taga Iloilo siya!

Nga-a Portugese ang komentaryo kag indi maski Espanol? Sin-o ang tag-iya sini nga cintas nga dapat may englis man tani nga komentaryo para ma-intiendihan naton?

Otherwise, great to have stumbled on this vid while searching for Iloilo City. Wish that there is English translation so we can hear the finer details.

[hPeAiUdLe]

Catalan that was the commentary language of this vid.

[Makamisa]

OO! ILONGGO PRIDE! like him, im half ilonggo to! but pure filipino! hehehe go Chicken Inasal! :P

I wished they used spanish instead of catalan, i cant understand it.

[tsupakagotin69]

yah mang!! pinoy pride...

[JPJ7]

Can u translate this into english please

[nachoruiz]

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.

[nachoruiz]

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 Philipines.

[nachoruiz]

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.
