(Kaieteur Sports) – Though, in the grand scheme of things, it still ended in a loss for the Tucville- based outfit; Fruta Conquerors Football Club’s Women showcased magnificent defensive tactics on Wednesday night, limiting the usual flow of goals for the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) Women FC when the Women’s Division One League continued.

Women’s Division One League… Fruta limits GDF; Police enjoy scoring spree

GDF were outplayed in a few aspects of their game in the battle against Fruta Conquerors.

Fruta Conquerors’ defensive masterclass came in the second fixture at the Guyana Football Federation’s (GFF) National Training Center (NTC), Providence on Wednesday.

Missing their usual goalkeeper, Karen Jupiter was promoted to the goal’s custodian. Her stature may have costed them the first strike, when GDF’s Sherrilyn Kingston’s shot from the half- way mark sailed over Jupiter’s head into the top- right corner of the net in the 8th.

Glendy Lewis netted a double in the 14th and 23rd, supported by a 24th minute strike off the boots of Shenessa Cornelius for GDF’s 4-0 score at the half.

However, in the second segment, GDF was only allowed one goal which came from Sandra Johnson in the 47th; as Jupiter and Akiliah Blucher teamed up to stifle the League’s most prolific scorers. A such, at the end of 60 minutes, GDF had to settle for a 5-0 win rather than their usual teen hauls.

Prior to that game, it was the Shinelle Pearson show at the NTC, as the Guyana Police Force (GPF) forward steered her team to an 18-0 drubbing of Den Amstel FC. Pearson found the back of the net in the 6th, 12th, 14th, 31st, 43rd, 53rd and 57th minutes. Amanda McKenzie notched a hattrick in the 18th, 25th and 40th while Whitney King had a similar achievement in the 28th, 44th and 45th minutes.

Alleia Alleyne (27th), Ashanti Smith (36th) and Leandra Henrito (53rd) all added their names to the scoresheet while two own goals on the part of Den Amstel boosted their tallies.

The nail- biting Women’s football action will continue tonight with another doubleheader at the Providence venue. At 18:00hrs Western Tigers goes toe to toe with Ann’s Grove United FC while at 19:30hrs, Monedderlust and River’s View FC will match skills.
