Wins for Strikers, Beacons and Rivers View

Aug 09, 2023 Sports

Kaieteur Sports – Potaro Strikers continued their rich vein of form when they produced another vintage performance last Saturday night at the Bartica Community Centre ground where the Bartica FA’s Senior Men’s League is being staged.

The two top marksmen for the Strikers struck again in a comfortable 4-1 win over AK Galaxy to move to the top of the table on 16 points from 7 games. Reon Hall was on target in the 45th and 78th minutes to take his season tally to 6, while Daniel Gardener netted his 8th in the 73rd minute to move one less than the competition’s leading scorer Andrew Simmons of Rivers View. Coby Jones scored the other goal in the 53rd minute while Voldeno DeFonseca got the consolation goal for Galaxy in the 33rd minute.

The other scheduled match was not played as Agatash failed to show up yet again and the Bartica FA has hinted they may have to suspend their participation in the League.

Meanwhile, in Monday night’s double-header Beacons FC came back from a 2-goal deficit to earn a 3-2 win over Rising Stars and Cup holders Rivers View rebounded with a lopsided 5-0 dismissal of Mil Ballers.

A double strike from Neil Martindale in the 18th and 24th minutes gave the Ballers a surprising lead. Shaquell Hopkinson reduced the lead in the 36th minute. Troy Dougan then delivered a match-winning brace for Beacons in the 53rd and 88th minutes as they reclaim the top of the table on 17 points after 7 matches.

The League’s top marksman, Andrew Simmons produced his 2nd hat-trick of the season to propel Rivers View to a 5th win from 6 games. Against Mil Ballers, Simmons netted in the 28th, 35th and 54th minutes to take his season tally to 12. Earlier, Omario Lake scored in the 8th and 24th minutes as the Cup holders rebounded from their recent loss to Beacons.

There will be more play at the Bartica Community Centre ground tonight (Wednesday 9th) with Wolves United taking on AK Galaxy at 7pm and at 9pm Lazio meet Agatash.
