Alpha hammer Conquerors 6-2
ALPHA United moved into touching distance of the Stag Beer Futsal winners’ trophy following a 6-2 drubbing of defending champions Fruta Conquerors at the Cliff Anderson Sports Hall, Thursday Night.Fruta Conquerors were no match for the nippy Alpha side and faded against their more energetic opponents.
Futsal king Travis `Zorro’ Grant provided heaps of misery for Conquerors and ended the night with two goals as Alpha United remained unbeaten in four games of the competition and raced into the semi-finals.
Aldair Parades also scored a double for the winning side while Dwight Peters and Chris Camacho netted one goal apiece. Daniel Favourite and Eon Alleyne scored for Conquerors.
In Thursday’s other quarter-final match Santos edged Pele 1-0 with a Gavin Wilson strike deciding the game. The competition continues this evening at the same venue with Alpha United turning their attention to the red-hot Western Tigers in what could be considered a virtual final. That match begins at 09:30hrs.
Santos will come up against Riddim Squad in the other semi-final game starting at 09:00hrs.. The organisers have scheduled six exhibition matches for today.
The competition is being sponsored by Ansa McAl, Hits and Jams and Elaine’s Ville and has a $400 000 first prize.
