Brown’s imperious performance buries Imperial College
A hat-trick from Shaquille Browne and a brace from teammate Romario Andrews ensured that Lodge set up a date with Government Technical Institute after their 8-2 drubbing of Imperial College as play in the inaugural Digicel-sponsored Nationwide Schools Football Competition continued on Monday, at the Tucville ground.
Browne and Andrews efforts were supported by strikes from Damien Wilson, Adonie Parboo and Ray Sanmogan, while Imperial College’s goals came off the boots of Keon McKenzie.
Action in the clash between Lodge and Imperial College which the former won 8-2 on Monday.
Watched by a sprinkling of fans that included Digicel’s CEO Gregory Dean, Events and Sponsorship Manager Gavin Hope and Co-ordinator of the Programme Lavern Fraser-Thomas, Lodge took the lead very early when Browne hammered a powerful strike from the top of the box past the opposing custodian in the 4th minute of play.
That advantage was stretched further when Andrews netted from close range two minutes after, before Browne returned to hit a spectacular scissors shot past a transfixed Imperial College goalkeeper in the 14th minute.
No more goals were scored in the period as Lodge held a comfortable 3-0 lead at the break.
Clearly the more superior team technically, Lodge looked even more menacing in the final period and took a 4-0 advantage when Andrews side-footed a pass inside the penalty area past a stationary goalkeeper, who failed to narrow the angle by advancing off his goal-line with the defenders trailing behind.
That goal came in the 42nd minute, before Wilson got into the act following a penalty six minutes later. Parboo was not to be outdone and he netted in the 53rd followed by Sanmogan in the 59th as the Lodge team ran riot over the Imperial defence.
They, however, got some reprieve as McKenzie opened the scoring for them when he disposed Lodge’s goalkeeper, before confidently hitting a shot into the empty goal in the 60th minute.
One minute before the final whistle, McKenzie completed a double, hitting in a penalty, but it was far too late to mount a comeback as referee Dion Inniss blew the whistle to signal full time had ended.
