Exciting matchups on today and tomorrow
By Rawle Welch
Eight more matches are on this weekend when the Milo / Petra Organisation Schools Football Competition resumes at the Ministry of Education ground on Carifesta Avenue.
Starting today, David Rose tackles Richard Ishmael in the opening encounter from 11:00 hrs and this clash promises to be a bruising affair since both teams are currently struggling in the competition.
David Rose lost to Kingston by a 4-2 margin, but many felt that they are an improving team and could very well earn full points this time around.
They will be relying on the services of their leading marksmen Sean Murray and Akeem Giddings, while Taquan Gladstone is anticipated to lead the charge for victory for Richard Ishmael.
In the second game of the day, Queen’s College fresh off their impressive showing against St. Winefred who they hammered 7-2 will look to maintain their efficiency when they face Tutorial High.
Once again the focus will be on their potent strike force that includes Aftab Crandon, who already is in the race for top goal scorer, while Stephen King and Ashmar Angel will lend support as they seek to remain unblemished.
The third game pits Carmel versus Kingston High and this encounter has all the hallmarks of being a scorcher. Kingston High started on a positive note with a 4-2 win over David Rose, while Carmel gained a similar result in their clash against Richard Ishmael.
Tremaine McCurdy, Nemar Douglas, Vincent Thomas and Shawn Grovesnor were the players entering the scoresheet for Kingston High, while last year’s leading goal scorer Marlon Nedd has already shown his form with a brace in their previous encounter.
In the final matchup of the day, North Georgetown engages Tucville. North Georgetown will come into this game with a lot of pressure on them following their lop-sided loss to North Ruimveldt.
Tucville on the other hand is a consistent performer and will go into the game feeling positive about themselves after a smooth performance in their initial clash against Freeburg, coasting to a comfortable 2-0 win with stars Keifer Brandt and Jamal Trim, the players on target. The competition continues tomorrow at the same venue.
The fixtures for the two days are as follows:
Today
11:00 hrs David Rose versus Richard Ishmael
12:30 hrs Queen’s College vs. Tutorial High School
14:00 hrs Carmel Secondary vs. Kingston High
15:30 hrs North Georgetown Secondary vs. Tucville Secondary
