When play in the Guyana Football Federation, Win in CONCACAF with CONCACAF under the FIFA
Initiative sponsored Super League continued on Sunday last, defending champions Alpha ‘The Hammer’ United, BK International Western Tigers and Amelia’s Ward United were in winners row while a number of other matches ended in draws.
At the GFC Ground in the Capital City, defending champions Alpha ‘The Hammer’ United were required to pull out all the stops to stave off a stern test from Berbice’s Rosignol United.
The champs found themselves trailing the lads from the east after Delroy Fraser scored his 3rd goal of the league in the 17th minute.
Alpha struck back through Manasseh Primo in the 57th minute with multi talented athlete Clive Andries, who represented Guyana in junior cricket, sealing the win in the 77th minute.
Over at the Uitvlugt Community Centre Ground, West Coast Demerara, Western Tigers humbled home side Seawall FC 3-0 with junior National Daniel Wilson opening the visitors account 20 minutes into the match.
Captain Dwayne Alli increased the tally from the penalty spot in the 34th minute after a Seawall defender deliberately handled the ball in the box. The deal was sealed beyond the shadow of a doubt when Orwin Hilton netted 4 minutes to game time.
In a hot game which saw two red cards being issued, Pele FC who lost their game against Seawall FC after they played an unregistered player in Gregory Richardson, were held to a 1-1 draw by Den Amstel, the latter scoring in added on time.
Pele took the lead when Jamal Cozier scored in the 33rd minute. With four minutes to half time, Pele’s Leon Roberts received marching orders for stamping an opponent. While Pele sought to secure their lead, Den Amstel were constantly on the hunt for the equaliser which finally came in the second minute of added on time (90+2) from eth penalty spot. Their most experienced player, Golden Jaguar Kester ‘Shoes’ Jacobs was entrusted with taking the penalty shot and he made no mistake much to the delight of his teammates and supporters.
At the conclusion of the game as the players and Referee were leaving the field, Pele’s Goalkeeper Devon Charles became abusive towards the Referees using threatening, abusive and insulting language, his actions resulted FIFA Referee Stanley Lancaster issuing him a red card.
Up at the Mackenzie Sports Club Ground in the Bauxite Mining Town of Linden, only one game was possible due to consistent rain during the day. In that game on a waterlogged ground, home team Amelia’s Ward United defeated East Demerara’s Buxton United 2-0. Carlos Grant in the 40th minute and Matthew White in the 65th were the players on target.
The second game which should have featured Milerock and Victoria Kings had to be called off.
Five matches are set for this weekend. At the BV Ground, East Coast Demerara, Victoria Kings will entertain Rosignol United from 13:45hrs with eth main game between defending champions Alpha United and Buxton United.
At the Uitvlugt Community Centre Ground, Seawall FC and Den Amstel will square off in the lone game from 15:45hrs, while up at the Mackenzie Sports Club Ground double header play takes place from 18:30hrs.
