IT was a night of goals galore as 29 were scored on the second night of the Petra-organised, Corona-sponsored Invitational football tournament at the GFC ground Bourda on Wednesday.

In the first of the triple-header, Western Tigers railroaded their Black Pearl FC opponents 13-0 in a goal-scoring frenzy with Andrew Murray leading the line with four goals in the 15th, 55th, 80th and 83rd minutes.
Hubert Pedro (3rd, 37th), Devon Millington (10th, 29th) and Dwayne McLennon (33rd, 59th) each contributed while Linden Pickett, Mark Gritten and Darren Benjamin each scored one in the 22nd, 56th and 79th respectively.
Game two was a more competitive fixture with Camptown needling GFC 1-0 thanks to Oziel Small in the 41st minute.
The hosts had more than enough chances to take the lead and even equalise but failed to do so, giving them their first loss of the tournament.
Meanwhile, the night’s goal-scoring trend continued with Police mauling Beacons FC 14-1.
Quincy Holder (7th, 37th, 39th, 45th) and Anthio Wallace (21st, 47th, 70th, 78th) were both on fire, scoring four each as the Police side arrested the Beacons unit, whose only goal came from Christopher Galloway in the 43rd minute
Police also had a hat-trick from Stephan Ramsey (34th, 84th, 42nd) as well as a brace from Dwain Jacobs (72nd, 81st) and a lone strike from Jermaine Granderson (13th)
Matches continue in the tournament today when Pele play East Veldt in game one at the same venue while Santos oppose Flamingo in game two and Riddim Squad FC play Northern Rangers in game three.
