PORT Mourant Training School were the victims of a 2-0 ‘stick up’ compliments of rivals Tutorial Academy Secondary School when action in the Digicel Schools Football Championships’ Region 6 leg continued yesterday.Playing at the Skeldon ground, the game was one with many chances, most of which came the way of the Training School boys but inevitably belonged to the Tutorial side, who exacted revenge for their loss two years ago at the same venue.
The first half ended scoreless with both sides opting to utilise the aerial route in an attempt to break the deadlock but to no avail.
The Skeldon ground that produced a goal fest over the past two days seemed to dry up, in spite of early morning rains drenching the ground.
Returning from the half, the Tutorial side seemed to be the ones on the hunt, going after more chances than their opponents and eventually in the 81st minute they were rewarded.
A blistering shot on goal from Lamar Reid sent the Training Centre goalkeeper to his left and in spite of getting a hand to it, could not keep the shot out of the net.
This sent Tutorial into wild jubilation and the small but vocal crowd finally had a goal to celebrate.
But they weren’t finished yet.
The side returned on the stroke of the 90th minute to score again from Reid as it was now all over for the Port Mourant side, who were visibly crestfallen, but had no one but themselves to blame based on the many chances created but which were not converted.
Meanwhile, over at Leonora, Soesdyke Secondary lambasted Diamond Secondary 7-1 thanks to Tyrone Khan who scored in the eighth, 13th, 35th, 51st and 75th minutes as well as Tyrell Khan (40th) and Shannon Samnaught (80th) who accounted for the other goals.
On target in the loss was Raphael Niles in the 11th minute.
