The Group A clash accounted one goal from Dextroy Adams before Marvin Josiah banged in a Guinness Goal [GG] (a goal that is scored In the final five minutes of play counts as two).
West Side Ballers, 2015 zone finalists, also got off their campaign positively after needling Rising Stars through a Morgan Denny goal in the 4th minute of the Group C game.
Earlier in the night, Up-Top Bosses, lead by a hat-trick form Amoniki Buntin (2nd minute and a GG in the 19th) cruised past Boom Bang 3-0 in the night’s first match.
The competitive ESPN, 2018 losing finalists, were most prolific after banging four unanswered goals past a shattered Dream Team. Scoring a brace for ESPN was Tefon Daly with a GG, while Dennis Edwards in the 4th minute and an Own Goal in the 13th minute accounted for the other strikes. (Calvin Chapman)
