Women’s Division One League… Monedderlust, Santos register wins
Kaieteur Sports – Contrasting wins for Monedderlust Football Club and Santos FC were on the cards on Wednesday night when the Women’s Division One League continued at the Guyana Football Federation’s (GFF) National Training Center (NTC) at Providence.
Santos did well to keep Fruta Conquerors at bay.
Monedderlust FC were the first to snatch three points on the night, downing Den Amstel FC 3-1. Den Amstel broke the ice, through Delia Chow in the 4th minute. However, the excitement of their lead allowed a lapse in defense resulting in Monedderlust’s Delicia Fraser finding the equalizer in the 12th minute.
The 1- all score would hold until the second half. Just when it seemed like a drawn result was on the way, Liliana Greenidge’s shot found the back of the net in the 56th to give the Berbice outfit the lead. Fraser returned in the 60th, capitalizing off of a build up to net her team’s third goal.
On the other hand, Santos FC had to fight off a relentless Fruta Conquerors FC for their 3 points. There were shots galore over the first 50 minutes of the encounter but it was a battle of the best defences as the likes of Santos’ Shantel Green and Christina Henrito alongside Fruta Conquerors’ Akilah Blucher and Karen Jupiter stood out.
However, in the final minutes of the game, it was Gabriel Rivera’s shot in the 57th from outside the penalty area that sailed over the Fruta Conquerors’ keeper’s reach and into the nets for the 1-0 win.
As a result of the win, Santos FC will move up to the third position in the League, however, it can be temporary since Fruta Conquerors will have the opportunity to surpass them again, tonight.
The Women’s Division One League will continue this evening, Friday, October 31 at the same venue. Den Amstel FC will be in action again, taking on Western Tigers from 18;00hrs while at 19:30hrs, Fruta Conquerors will seek redemption against Mainstay Goldstar FC.
