Albouystown Ballers hit 10 goals in rollicking start to President’s ‘One Guyana’ Futsal Championship

The President’s ‘One Guyana’ Futsal Championship delivered a series of high-octane knockout encounters last night, with goals flying in across the board.

The highlight of the evening saw Albouystown Ballers deliver a sensational attacking performance, while two players netted crucial hat-tricks to send their teams through.

The most dominant performance of the night belonged to Albouystown Ballers, who steamrolled Show Stoppers with a commanding 10-1 victory.

The destruction was led by Joel Magrel, who was unstoppable, scoring five goals (4th, 8th, 9th, 26th, 30th) in a brilliant individual display. Randy Maynard also chipped in with a hat-trick (20th, 24th, 25th) as Albouystown laid down a firm marker for the rest of the competition.

In the night’s other tightly contested matches, several forwards proved the difference as Foot Steppers secured a thrilling 5-3 win over Real Sport, powered by a hat-trick from Anthony Roberts (4th, 5th, 30th). Roberts struck twice in the opening minutes to set the pace before sealing the win late on.

Agricola Ballers overcame Mocha Red Force 4-2, thanks mainly to Demane Cort, whose three goals (16th, 17th, 30th) proved decisive from the opening fixture.

Beavers saw off Gaza Squad 4-1, with Rodwin Jones and Timothy Kennedy establishing an early lead that proved insurmountable. Meanwhile, Kanaimas edged a tense encounter against Paradise Invaders 2-1, with a double from Brandon LaRose (9th, 25th).

The action continues Thursday at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall with both the men’s knockout stage and the schoolboys’ round-robin segment.

The highly anticipated men’s lineup features five elimination matches, headlined by the late clash between Corinthians and Tiger Bay.
