PELE ended Alpha United’s unbeaten run in the Georgetown Football Association’s (GFA)/Cellink Plus Premier League when play in the competition continued on Friday evening at the Tucville ground.

A Marvin Joseph 25th minute goal accounted for Alpha United’s first loss after an 11-game winning streak, but the star studded Alpha United team still heads the points standing with 31 points from the 12 matches they have played to date.

They won 10, drew one and lost their last fixture on Friday night.

To date, the points leaders have scored 39 goals and conceded five for a goal difference of plus 34.

The win for Pele propels them to 10 points from 11 matches.

They won three, drew one and lost the other seven, in the process they have scored 14 goals and conceded six for a goal difference of plus eight.

Joseph’s goal on Friday evening was his eight in the competition to date and with his team having three more matches to contest; he will be seeking to improve on that mark in an effort to be in contention of winning the Highest Goals Scorer of the tournament award.

Alpha United’s Shawn Bishop with nine first round goals and three to date in the second round, head the list of players that are in contention for the award.
