Action in the Slingerz, GFC match on Friday night at the Tucville ground.

The home team Conquerors continued their phenomenal run in this FINALE with another clinical performance as they downed the Army side in a clinical display, registering five first half goals to maintain their second place standing.
Conquerors, in recording their eight win in ten matches banged in their first goal 7 minutes into the opening half, compliments of Dennis Edwards. Eon Alleyne doubled the advantage in the 18th minute while senior campaigner Dellon Williams made it a 3-0 match in the 28th minute.
To underscore their dominance of proceedings, Conquerors made it 4-0 in the 31st minute when the dependable Hubert Pedro found the back of the nets with Jahall Greaves putting the match beyond the GDF seven minutes later with a goal of his own.
By then the mountain that was created by the home side was way too insurmountable for the visitors who, despite pulling two back could not break the home team’s defence.
