In the feature match of the day, Lodge, led by a brace from Dorwin George in the 44th and 49th minutes defeated President’s College (PC) 2-0. PC didn’t help themselves much during the match, missing some good chances, including a penalty which was skied on the stroke of the first half.
Lodge finished Group E top with nine points, while PC finished second with four points.
