Milerock FC celebrating their victory
A packed audience at the Retrieve Hard Court witnessed the most anticipated game of the Upper Demerara Football Association’s (UDFA’s) Year- end Futsal Tournament; wherein the likes of Colwyn Drakes and Marcus Tudor led Milerock to the Championship, displaying such dominance and tactical precision on the court as to nudge Capital FC into the second-place spot.
Milerock Captain Marcus Tudor receiving the championship trophy
Tyric McAllister, Andre Mayers and Emmanuel Atkins each secured one goal for Capital FC, but their collective effort didn’t measure up to those of the Colwyn Drakes ‘Show’, as he netted three goals for his side. He was assisted by Allan Haley and Rawle Gittens who each secured one goal; and team captain Marcus Tudor, who scored two goals for his squad, to secure the 7-3 win.
In another spectacular show of skills, Nicholas Gentle scored 6 goals against Botofago FC to ensure Winners Connection’s 9-7 victory in the third-place playoff.
MVP Colwyn Drakes
Omar Brewley and Antwaine Gill each managed to net two goals for Botofago, and aided their team in securing 7 goals, but it was not enough to challenge their opponents.
The winners of the tournament, Milerock FC, took home the championship trophy and $1,000,000; while second place finishers Capital FC carted off $500,000. 3rd Place team, Winners Connection, received $200,000.
Meanwhile, Colwyn Drakes has copped the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award.
