The KFC Elite League, organised by the Guyana Football Federation (GFF), is set to resume at the Federation’s National Training Centre (NTC) at Providence, East Bank Demerara (EBD) with another double-header.
Tonight, defending champions Fruta Conquerors are set to take on Victoria Kings Football Club at 19:00h, after which the Guyana Police Force (GPF) FC will battle Santos FC at 21:00h.
When the league last witnessed competition on Saturday last, the Guyana Police Force FC continued their dominant run while Western Tigers FC also remained unbeaten.
Western Tigers defeated Victoria Kings
The first match at the GFF’s NTC on Saturday last was a clash between Western Tigers and Victoria Kings, in which the former emerged victorious, 3-1. Randolph Wagner was first to find the back of the net in the fourth minute. However, Victoria’s Travis Eversley would even things up in the 23rd minute, keeping the scores locked well into the second half.
As both teams fought to break the deadlock, Western Tigers’ experience shone through as Hubert Pedro executed a simple tap-in in the 67th minute to hand the Georgetown team the lead once more. Lavaugh Enniss, by way of a header in the 87th, brought the scores to 3-1.
In the following game, the GPF FC thrashed a hapless Den Amstel FC 9-0. During the initial minutes of the game, Den Amstel appeared an even competitor for the Policemen, with a few scoring opportunities. However, the floodgates opened when the tournament’s leading goal-scorer, Nicholas McArthur found the back of the net for the first time in the 38th minute. McArthur would go on to complete his helmet trick with goals in the 40th, 43rd and 54th minutes.
