Ann’s Grove United and GDF register important wins
Once again, Lake Mainstay Goldstar Football Club’s embarrassing performance and Ann’s Grove United’s narrow victory were the major talking points as Season Seven of the Elite League continued over the weekend at the National Training Centre (NTC) in Providence and at the Number 5 Ground in Berbice.
Alden Lawrence scored an 89th minute winner
At the Number 5 Ground on Saturday afternoon, Ann’s Grove United took on Monedderlust Football Club on their home turf. Ann’s Grove United had a blistering start to the game when Yohance Francis netted in the fourth minute of the game. Monedderlust Football Club got themselves right back into the game as they netted in the 25th minute of the game via Tyrone Delph. Halftime came with the game tied 1-1 and it well in the balance. Both teams came out firing in the second half, looking for the winning moment. It was Alden Lawrence who produced a moment of magic in the 89th minute to seal a 2-1 victory for Ann’s Grove United.
Stephen McDonald scored five goals
At the Guyana Football Federation’s NTC on Sunday, the crowd witnessed a bloodbath as the Guyana Defence Force FC destroyed the underwhelming Mainstay Goldstar FC. A seven-goal first half combined with a 10-goal second half saw GDF record a 17-0 comprehensive victory. Stephen McDonald scored five goals, while Travon Bobb scored a hat-trick. A brace was also scored by Delroy Ferdinand, Keron Spencer, Amos Ramsay, and Colwyn Adams. Leshawn Myles also scored during the game.
