NOBODY thought San Miguel will pull a comeback from 0-3 down considering the team's situation with about three minutes left in Game 4 of the PBA Philippine Cup Finals against Alaska.
A week and a half later, the Beermen accomplished the dream basketball comeback by turning back the Aces, 96-89, in Game 7 of the series at the Mall of Asia Arena.

As expected, San Miguel fans and even college basketball players who watched the game turned to Twitter to celebrate the historic feat.

From 3-0 to 3-4, indeed a Beer-acle. Proof that while on you're on a game, never lose hope.— Rovy Shane Vargas (@rvyshnvrgs_) February 3, 2016
Congrats SMB @TheSMBeermen
Even Talk 'n Text star Ranidel De Ocampo was all praises to the Beermen, especially his older brother Yancy.
Some other basketball observers, on the other hand, think that Alaska has nothing to be ashamed of despite blowing the 3-0 lead.
