On Thursday, Albouystown Ballers dispatched Game Changer 5-1 in the opening match of Day Five. Nicholas Jarvis broke the deadlock in the 12th minute to give Albouystown the lead. Troy Kennedy of Game Changer quickly leveled the score four minutes later, but Deandre Linton restored Albouystown’s advantage. From there, it was all Albouystown as Jequan Cole, Andrew Carto, and Homey Harris netted individual goals to seal victory for their side.
Team Touches mirrored Albouystown’s performance by defeating DJ7 5-1 in the second match. Brace performances from Jamal Fyffe and Jonathan Andries, along with a lone goal from Jaheem Grant, rounded out the commanding victory.
Paradise Invaders treated the crowd to a seven-goal splendor. Deon Martin (1’ & 5’), Qumey Aulder (20’ & 26’), Nini Bobb (19’ & 24’), and Nial Reynolds (30’) went on a goal-scoring rampage, thrashing Sophia ‘A’ 7-2 to command their spot in the round of 32.
In another exciting encounter, Pouderoyen Brothers went down 3-1 to Victoria Eagles despite initially leading 1-0.
