Some of the action between Pele FC and Buxton United
GFF/Stag Elite League Finale…
Alpha United and Pele FC seemed to shrug-off their indifferent performances in the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) Stag Elite League Finale with their second successive wins on the trot at the Georgetown Football Club (GFC), Bourda on Wednesday.
In the first match, Alpha United made light work of Monedderlust in their 3-1 victory over the Berbice team.
Colin Nelson was the man to get the ball rolling for Alpha as he struck goal in the 31st and in the space of one minute, Alpha were up by two goals as Anthony Abrams continued his impressive goal scoring form to hit the back of the net in the 32nd.
The Berbice based side, never looked like they were completely out of the match as they found goal in the 39th from a shot by Kevin Layne to end an eventful first half.
