While the other three teams will be looking to recover from losses in their last outings, the GDF unit will be hoping to stay unbeaten, having registered four wins and a draw thus far.
When the KFC Elite League was last contested on Saturday, Ann’s Grove United FC and Den Amstel FC picked up some valuable points through victories.
In the first game of the night, Ann’s Grove United narrowly got past Milerock FC 3-2. It was a fiercely contested first half, as Milerock FC took the lead first, by way of a Rodensio Tudor strike in the 14th minute. It was only until added time at the end of the half that Ann’s Grove were able to level the scores, owing to an Andel Gulliver goal in the 45th+2.
In the second half, Ann’s Grove took the lead early as Antwon Williams found the back of the net in the 48th minute. Spectators were kept on the edge of their seats as Tudor struck again in the 73rd to equalise the scores for a second time.
However, six minutes later, Justin Herod beat the goal’s custodian to register the game winner for Ann’s Grove.
The following game was a single-goal thriller between Den Amstel FC and Victoria Kings FC. After witnessing deadlocked scores for much of the encounter, Den Amstel’s Ryan Lewis struck in the 85th minute to hand Den Amstel their second victory of the competition.
As previously mentioned, GDF FC and Western Tigers currently lead the league with the Guyana Police Force (GPF) FC also remaining unbeaten thus far.
