KFC Elite League Cup: GDF, Western Tigers maintain dominance with massive wins

A similar script was written for both games in a double header on Friday night at the Police Sports Club Ground, Eve Leary, in continuation of the Guyana Football Federation-organized KFC Elite League Cup.
Both football clubs: Guyana Defence Force (GDF) and Western Tigers, found themselves in a similar position at the half, but roared back to pick up commanding wins and 3 full points.
First on the pitch was Western Tigers, taking on Ann’s Grove United FC. Western struck first by way of a Rashaun Ritch goal in only the second minute of the game. however, Jaden Grann of Ann’s Grove fired back in the 21st to level the scores, which remained stuck at 1-1 into the second half.
There, Western found their form, with Randolph Wagner sending home a hat trick in the 57th, 60th and 64th minutes to move the score to 4-1 in quick time. Jermain Beckles found the back of the net in the 88th and Daniel Wilson capped off the 6-1 victory with a strike in the 90th+1.

The story was almost identical when GDF went on to defeat Buxton United FC 7-1 in the ensuing game. This time, Buxton drew first blood when Paul Kingston found the back of the net in the 13th minute. The lead was short-lived, however, as Chris Macey equalized for GDF in the 24th.
In another good show of defensive tactics from the underdogs, the scores remained locked at 1-1 into the second segment. But like Western, GDF showed off their goal scoring prowess, which was kickstarted when Olvis Mitchell broke the ice in the 56th. Stephon McDonald made it a 2-1 game in the 62nd, and a third goal came from Delroy Fraser in the 71st. Kelsey Benjamin then added his name to the score sheet in the 75th minute, before Fraser returned to complete his triple in the 82nd and 85th minutes; taking GDF’s tally to 7-1.
GDF now sit atop Group A with 9 points from 3 games, while Western Tigers have identical points leading Group B. The League Cup is likely to continue today, Sunday.
