VETERAN forward Patrick Reichelt announced his retirement from the Philippine national football team on Sunday, about 13 hours after he helped the Filipino booters defeat Indonesia, 1-0, in the Asean Mitsubishi Electric Cup at the Manahan Stadium in Surakarta on Saturday night.
The victory sent the Philippines to the semifinals of the tourney for the first time since 2018, but Reichelt won't play on the stage anymore, especially with his wife about to give birth in a few days.
