Alpha, Pele, Western Tigers chalk up wins

Nov 27, 2012 Sports

 

 

When play in the Guyana Football Federation Super League continued on Sunday last, defending champions Alpha ‘The Hammer’ United, Pele and Western Tigers all took full points from their opponents, Buxton United Sports Club, Rosignol United and Milerock FC.
Buxton United were not able to let their home advantage count as the rampaging defending champions have chalked up back to back wins after losing to Uitvlugt Warriors, their first defeat in years.
Anthony Abrams was again in the main scorer for Alpha with a first half double that knocked the wind out of the sails of Buxton. Abrams rocked the nets in the 13th and 25th minute with the deal being sealed in the 73rd minute through a Mervin Joseph goal.
Both sides used two substitutions with Daniel Wilson making way for Shevane Seaforth in the 73rd minute, while Dwight Peters exited with two minutes to game time, replaced by Manasseh Primo.
Buxton tried to reinforce their troopers in the first minute of the second half when Robin Phillip made way for Les Charles Critchlow. Eson Hamer left the game in the 62nd minute when Jamaal Booker was introduced.
Over at the GFC Ground, the Pele trio of Gregory Richardson (9), Konata Manning (39) and Travis Grant (67) guided their side to a 3-2 win over Rosignol FC, the Berbice side got their strikes from second half substitute Christopher Clarkson (75) and Tyson Carmichael (87).
The late surge of the Berbicians was cause for worry in the Pele camp but they were able to hold out for the win.
Western Tigers needled Upper Demerara’s Milerock in a keen battle between the two sides. They were separated in the 71st minute when Sherman David breached the Milerock defence and goalkeeper.
