UDFA’S Senior League…
– Shattas meet Panthers, Blueberry Hill face Botafago tonight

Two more interesting matches are slated for tonight when play will see from 6.00pm Amelia’s Ward Panthers come to grips with Silver Shattas and the second at 8.00pm brings together Blueberry Hill and Botafago.
Capital FC capitalized on an off key Haynes Winners Connection side which could not find their rhythm against a brimming Capital FC unit and found themselves in trouble as early as the 12th minute when Tyric McAllister made the best of a free kick to score for a 1-0 lead.
The score would remain that way and while both teams surely are not in great form it was the Capital FC which looked more purposeful. Forward Emmanuel Atkins would finish a good pass from McAllister, finding the back of the net in the 84th minute that sealed a 2-0 win for the relatively new kids on the block Capital FC, against the experienced Winners Connection.

It was always going to be an uphill task as Milerock fielding a relatively unknown side barring veteran Rawle ‘Boney’ Gittens against their more experienced opponents Topp XX.
Topp XX would use this experience to their advantage and when Abraham Browne was fouled Travis Waterton made no mistake in taking the penalty in the 65th minute to break a 0-0 deadlock in the second period of play.
That 1-0 advantage would be doubled in the 81st minute when Milerock lapsed, allowing striker Browne to finish a ball that was cleared, but found the feet of Waterton who set the play for Browne to score making it 2-0.
Late in the game Milerock would gain a consolation goal in the 87th minute to lose by a 2-1 score-line through Jermaine Maison.
