Stag Beer/EBFA division-one League…Kuru Kururu Warriors & Timehri Falcons notch 2nd victory
Kuru Kururu Warriors have taken over the lead in the Stag Beer/East Bank Football Association (EBFA) division-one League following their 3-1 win over Mocha Champs when action continued on Sunday last at the Grove Playfield, East Bank Demerara.
Also recording their second in as many matches were Timehri Falcons which needled a resurgent Diamond United in a pulsating match-up.
The Warriors, based on the Linden Soesdyke Highway, looked a solid unit in another compact showing. They were led to victory by Ryan Scott who netted a brace of goals, rocking the network in the 6th and 52nd minutes. Rakesh Haimnauth sealed the deal with a goal of his own in the 59th minute.
Mocha were able to net a consolation goal in the 63rd minute through the effort of Travis Anthony. Timehri Falcons, one of the teams favoured to lift the champion’s trophy and first prize of $300,000, lived up to its billing but were pushed to the hilt by a determined young Diamond side.
It did not take too long for Timehri to assume the ascendancy, breaching the Diamond defence and goalkeeper in the 15th minute when Collis Messiah found the back of the nets. It was the only time that Falcons were able to penetrate with any success.
Diamond fought valiantly for the equalizing goal but were not fortunate on the day. They however proved that they are improving with every game.
This Sunday, Agricola Red Triangle will come up against Herstelling FC in the opening match at 13:00hrs with feature play between Grove Hi Tech and Soesdyke Falcons.
