SECOND round action in the Georgetown Football Federation (GFF) National Super League continues today with five scintillating games at four venues throughout the country. In the mining town of Linden at the Mackenzie Sports Club (MSC) Ground, the Linden contingent will be hoping to continue in the same manner where they left off last weekend but their task will be very steep this time around.
In game one which gets under way at 18:00 h, Milerock will tangle with Rosignol United. A win for Milerock will take them to 21 points and a possible second place position, while a Rosignol win will take them to 23 points and a chance to remain in second position, since no other team can reach 23 points after this round of matches.
Game two commences at 20:00 h with Bakewell Topp XX clashing with Alpha ‘The Hammer’ United, the only unbeaten team in the competition who are sailing on top of the points standing with 27 points.
A win by Bakewell Topp XX will be considered an upset as they are stuck in eighth position which is not a safe place to be since they could be facing elimination with a loss.
In Bartica, Liquid Gold will play hosts to Victoria Kings in a game which will see the teams who are in seventh (V/Kings – 11 points) and ninth (L/Gold – 10 points) position vying for a victory to better their positions.
The match-up starts at 20:00 h at the Bartica Community Centre ground.
At the Uitvlugt Community Centre ground, Camptown will oppose the boys from the West Side, Seawall FC, from 16:00 h.
The final game this week will be between Buxton United and Guyana Defence Force (GDF) and it will be played at the Georgetown Football Club (GFC) Ground from 19:00 h.
These teams are fifth (GDF) and sixth (Buxton) with 16 and 12 points respectively, and a win for either team will surely be a boost for their current positions.
