DEFENDING champions St Angela’s Primary are back in the finals of the 2017 Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) Smalta Girls U-11 Football tournament.

Following the quarter-final and semi-final action yesterday at the Ministry of Education ground, the two teams will now face each other in a bid for the 2017 championship.
In the first semi-final, St Angela’s beat out St. Pius 4-1 thanks to Nakasi St. Jules. St Jules was instrumental as she scored in the 3rd, 19th, 28th and 30th minutes to ensure her team’s run to the final. Kesia Wilson was the lone scorer for the losers.

In the second semi, it was a different affair with South Ruimveldt getting the better of their Western Neighbors–West Ruimveldt–1-0. Fayon Harvey scored the decider in the 26th min.

In the earlier quarter final, North Georgetown and South Ruimveldt drew their game with Jadea Maison scoring for North in the 26th and Kci Pollard for South in the 24th.
St Pius also beat F.E Pollard 2-1 thanks to Kerry Boyce (5th) and Kezra Wilson (30th) while Tallia Wharton was F.E Pollard’s scorer.

West Ruimveldt also registered a 3-0 win over Redeemer thanks to Akila Smith, Celica Williams and Ashayla Pedro, while St Angela’s trumped over Tucville 5-0.
St Jules again found herself on the scoresheet twice, with one each from Patricia Rollox, Akeela McKenzie and Shikaria Lupe.

Apart from next week’s final, the third place playoff will be between West Ruimveldt and St Pius, the fifth place playoff between Tucville and North Georgetown and the Seventh place playoff between F.E Pollard and Redeemer.
