Digicel/Powerade U-18 Schools Football C/ship…Stephen blasts 6 in LTVI’s 12-0 demolition of Goed Fortuin Pri.
Leonora Technical & Vocational Institute’s (LTVI) demolition of Goed Fortuin Primary 12-0 can be described as a walk in the park for the West Demerara school when competition in the Digicel/Powerade Nationwide Under-18 School’s football championship continued at the Den Amstel Community Centre Ground, yesterday afternoon.
Jevel Stephen headlined the goal feast for LTVI, blasting the nets on six occasions with a brace from Jamaal Bentick.
From the start of the contest it was plain to see that the Goed Fortuin side would have been in for a torrid time against the much more grown LTVI team; and the former were surely outmuscled despite showing flashes of brilliance few and far.
Stephen opened the LTVI account on their first attempt at goal which was the 2nd minute with Bentick doubling the advantage three minutes later.

Thereafter play was concentrated in the Goed Fortuin half of the field with rare movements in the LTVI half.
An own goal off the boot of Goed Fortuin’s Shanic Burnette gifted LTVI, their third goal, which was followed by a 23rd minute effort from Miguel Williams to stretch the lead to 4-0. Four minutes later it was Richard Blackett who added his name to the score sheet for a 5-0 score line.
Stephen banged in his second in the 38th minute (6-0), Bentick achieved his brace in the 42nd (7-0) and with one minute to the break, Stephen tucked in his third goal (8-0) at the half as it started for LTVI, on a high.
Goed Fortuin’s goalkeeper Zebblon Cadogan looked a dejected lad at the break but was being cheered up by his teammates as they headed into the pavilion for a much needed respite.
Four minutes into the second half Stephen was again on song as he netted his fourth goal (9-0) but thereafter, the lads from Goed Fortuin showed admirable resolve as they stemmed the goal scoring tide for quite some time.
It was back in the groove for Stephen in the 78th and 82nd minute with the deal being sealed one minute before time by Alex Moore; LTVI 12 Goed Fortuin 0.
