Wins for Vurlon Mills Academy, Kuru Kururu Warriors, Timehri Panthers and Diamond United

Vurlon Mills Academy, Kuru Kururu Warriors, Diamond United and defending champions Timehri Panthers all recorded wins on Saturday when the fourth edition of the East Bank Football Association (EBFA) Under-11 League, sponsored by USA-based Guyanese Ralph Green, continued at the Guyana Football Federation’s National Training Centre, Providence, East Bank Demerara.

Vurlon Mills Academy recorded their second 2-0 victory, which ensured that they kept their lead at the top of the points table on goal difference ahead of the Linden Soesdyke Highway based Kuru Kururu Warriors.

Blake Edwards and Malcolm Hendricks were the players who scored for Mills Academy. The young Warriors recorded another positive result which meant they have matched their winning record of two wins from 10-matches in last year’s tournament and seem determined to make it to the top this year.

Led by a Levi Sampson double (5^th, 20^th), Kuru Kururu Warriors defeated Friendship All Stars 3-1; Jahson Maddison netted the other in the 10^th minute, his second of the tournament. Friendship pulled one back through Jermaine Haynes’ 13^th minute strike.

The tournament’s leading goal scorer Rick Ramotar led Diamond United to their first win playing in his third tournament at this level. Scorer of this year’s first goal and his team’s lone goal in their draw against Samatta Point/Kaneville, Ramatar netted in the 7^th and 20^th minutes, which was all his side needed to take full points from Eagles FC of Stewartville.

Defending champions, Timehri Panthers, after going down to Vurlon Mills Academy in their opening match one week ago, rebounded in grand style when they defeated Fruta Conquerors 2-0 with goals either side of play, thanks to goals off the boot of Jadon Tasher (14^th) from the penalty spot and Shaquan Caleb in the 20^th minute.

Saturday’s other match ended 0-0 between Riddim Squad and Agricola Red Triangle. Matches will continue on Saturday at the same venue.
