Appearing in the opening game of the night, defending champ North Ruimveldt registered the first win of the Georgetown Zone of the Guinness ‘Greatest of the Streets’ Competition which commenced on Friday
evening, at the National Cultural Centre Tarmac.
Also joining them were Sparta Boss, North East La Penitence and East Front Road, who all won their respective matchups in front of another large crowd.
They eased past Island All-Stars by a 2-0 margin with Nickosie Barker firing in a double in the 12th and 13th minutes. His opening goal was somewhat accidental as an attempt to clear by an opposing player slammed into his foot and rebounded into the goal. One minute later, he returned with a bang, hitting a ferocious shot into the roof of the net.
In the game that followed, South Ruimveldt and Festival City Street Fighters played to a goalless stalemate, while North East La Penitence got their campaign off to a positive start with a narrow 1-0 win over Queen Street of Tiger Bay.
Calvin Moore’s fourth minute strike after a defensive blunder separated the two teams.
National Guinness champions Sparta Boss looked impressive in their 2-0 triumph over Broad Street Bullies with Denis Edwards and Sheldon Shepherd netting in the 18th and 19th minutes respectively.
Edwards slotted past the last stop after taking advantage of a one-on-one situation, while Shepherd ran on to a pass, before blasting into the goal.
East Front Road coasted to a 2-0 win over Alexander Village with Dillon Kelly 6th minute effort and Shaka Jones strike in the 12th proving enough for three points.
West Back Road needled South Sophia 1-0 through a Jamal Haynes 4th minute goal, while South Ruimveldt and Festival City encounter failed to produce any goals.
It was also the case with Globe Yard who skirmished with Cross Street and Albouystown-B who nagged Holmes Street of Tiger Bay.
Next up is California Square Tarmac.
