BV Triumph United & Uitvlugt qualify for main draw
GFF Super League – Preliminary Round
The 2012/2013 Guyana Football Federation Super League will see the debut of two teams in East Demerara’s BV Triumph United and West Demerara’s Uitvlugt; the two club’s earned the right following wins in their home and away matches against Silver Shattas and New Amsterdam United, respectively.
BV Triumph United shattered the dreams of Upper Demerara’s Silver Shattas when they hammered them 8-2 in the return game at the GFC Ground on Sunday afternoon. This follows the East Coast sides 2-1 win at the BV Ground one week before.
Leading the goal spree for BV was Reon Hopkinson who blasted the nets on three occasions (8, 11, 33), leading forward Delroy Deen converted twice (27, 29), veteran Shawn Daniels showed that he is still a force to be recon with by netting a brace also (82, 86) with the other goal coming off the booth of Ian Dooker in the 59th minute.
Intense rivalry between BV Triumph United and Silver Shattas at the GFC Ground on Sunday.
Silver Shattas got their strikes off the boots of Robin Adams (22) and Calwin David three minutes to full time.
Up at the Uitvlugt Community Centre Ground, West Coast Demerara, the home team salvaged a 1-1 draw against New Amsterdam United to compliment their 3-2 away win at Blairmont Ground one week earlier to secure their spot in the Super League, joining fellow West Demerara side, Den Amstel.
New Amsterdam United, conscious that they had to win by a big margin to cancel out Uitvlugt’s advantage were on target early in the piece as they took the lead through an Adrian Adams 9th minute goal.
Similar efforts were required without Uitvlugt responding but the home team backed by their supporters tightened up in defence as they nullified all the efforts of the Berbice side.
With ten minutes to game time, Uitvlugt was able to cancel out New Amsterdam’s advantage when Jamal Harvey hit the network.
Harvery’s goal effectively sealed Uitvlugt’s spot in the 10-team Super League which is set to kick off later this month.
The GFF will host a meeting with all the Super League Clubs today at their Dadanawa Stree, Section ‘K’ Campbellville Headquarters from 10:30hrs.
