Stag Beer/EBFA Div.1 League – Rd 2…Grove Hi Tech beat Soesdyke Falcons 4-0; Agricola/Warriors match abandoned
Grove Hi Tech moved a step closer to sealing championship honours in the Stag Beer sponsored East Bank Football Association division-one league when they brushed aside Soesdyke Falcons 4-0 in the opening game on Sunday last at the Grove Playfield.
Led by their Captain, Domini Garnett with a hat-trick, Grove eased to their 11th win in 12 matches with two games in hand and seems set to win the league.
Soesdyke kept the home team at bay for almost the entire first half but their resistance eventually snapped with two minutes to the half way mark and it was Garnett who rocked the nets with the first of his three in the 43rd minute.
That was all that Grove needed and they never looked back as the Soesdyke side failed to keep it tight in the final 45 minutes letting in three more goals. Garnett scored again in the 52nd and 63rd minute, Devon Joseph tucked in one in the 59th minute.
Sunday’s other game was abruptly abandoned as a result of a fracas between opposing players from Agricola Red Triangle and Kuru Kururu Warriors, the former were leading 3-2 at the time when Referee Wilton Bobb was forced to halt the 66th minute.
The players at the centre of the melee are Agricola’s Gordon Grant and Joseph Walker of the Warriors. The EBFA is awaiting the Referees report before deciding on the fate of the players at the centre of this unfortunate incident which brought the game into disrepute.
Agricola had taken the lead in the 23rd minute through Grant, their leading marksman but goals in the space of three minutes handed the Warriors a 2-1 lead, Franklin Medouze in the 27th and Christopher Fraser, three minutes later.
Agricola fired back to equalize and take the lead with goals from Winston Rawlins (55) and Lumumba Hinds (60) before the game was unceremoniously halted much to the disappointment of the fans and EBFA officials.
