In Mahaica’s win, the opposition drew first blood in the 10th minute from an own goal credited to Shamar Pollard but the equalizer came five minutes later, compliments of Kadasi Barns. The encounter continued with scores leveled until the brink of half time where Eion Abel made his presence felt.
Abel gained the lead for Mahaica in the 44th then completed his brace after the break when he scored in the 64th minute to put the victory beyond doubt.
In the game that followed, a brace from Buxton Stars’ Neil Hutson (28th & 68th) and the opening goal from Stephon Thomas in the 11th minute was enough to defeat the Melanie side that saw a goal each from Seon Heywood (64’) and Nail Hernandez, who scored from the penalty spot in the 74th minute.
The following day which had loud rain, Airy Hall crushed Haslington 3 – 0 with goals from Dellon Desa (16’), Elton Amsterdam (47’) and Omar Williams (63’).
