Azkals up close: Paul Mulders

by Shiela Reyes
MANILA, Philippines – Born in a country where football is played with passion, Azkals midfielder Paul Mulders said it's his destiny to play the sport.

“In Europe, football is like the number one sport," the 5'11" Filipino-Dutch told abs-cbnNEWS.com. "[There] you just race with the ball.”
Mulders, the newest addition to the Azkals line-up, was born in Amsterdam to a Filipina mother and a Dutch father.
He said he started kicking the ball at age 3.
He grew up to become an offense-oriented player, making it into the pro ranks by entering the Dutch first division league.
