KFC Elite League: Police stay unbeaten, Den Amstel win second game
Den Amstel (green and white) have picked up their second 3 points of the tournament
The Guyana Police Force (GPF) Football Club are currently the team to beat in the ongoing sixth season of the Guyana Football Federation (GFF)/KFC Elite League, their having maintaining an unbeaten record over six games thus far.
The lawmen remained unblemished on Tuesday night at the National Training Center (NTC) at Providence, East Bank Demerara, and were joined in the winners’ circle by Den Amstel FC, who picked up their second win of the season.
The first clash of last evening’s double-header saw West Demerara’s Den Amstel getting past Berbice’s Monedderlust FC, 3-0. Andre Hector broke the ice between the two team by handing Den Amstel the lead in the 13th minute. It was not until the second half that another goal was witnessed, this time coming off the boots of Anthony Benn. Benn stuck in the 68th and again in the 78th minute to make it a 3-0 game in Den Amstel’s favour.
Neron Barrow (on ball) made it a 2-0 game for the GPF FC
In the following game, Police met a stiff challenge from Santos FC, but managed to hold off the fairly young team for another victory. In the 17th minute, Nicholas McArthur opened the scoring for Police, then Neron Barrow added to their tally in the 35th, for a 2-0 score by the half. However, Santos managed to keep the lawmen quiet in the second segment to keep their goal difference down.
The KFC Elite League is scheduled to continue today, Thursday April 4th, with another double-header at the same venue. In the first game, at 18:30hrs, a winless Buxton United will take on an equally struggling Fruta Conquerors FC, while Slingerz FC would look to extend their perfect record against Ann’s Grove United FC from 21:00hrs.
