GFF/NAMILCO Thunderbolt Flour Power U17 League – Essequibo/Pomeroon FA …

ANOTHER flawless display from Henrietta saw them claim a hard-earned 1-0 win over Queenstown to end their first-round campaign in the Essequibo Pomeroon Football Association (EPFA) leg of the GFF/NAMILCO Thunderbolt Flour Power, Under-17 Intra Association League last Sunday afternoon unbeaten, at the Anna Regina Community Centre ground.

The other match on the day produced a comfortable 4-0 victory for Dartmouth Determinators over Tapakuma FC which also closed the first-round campaign for Dartmouth on a high, their third win in four matches.

The Henrietta vs Queenstown clash produced a humdinger of a battle between the two sides, much to the enjoyment of their respective fan base. Neither of the two teams allowed the other to get the better of them as the goalkeepers kept a clean sheet for the most part.

It was two minutes before the final whistle in the 70-minute dual that the relentless efforts of Henrietta paid off when they were awarded a penalty because of an infringement in the area.

Erron Caesar was given the responsibility to take the kick from the penalty mark in a very tense atmosphere and he made no mistake, burying the shot to seal the win for his team whilst keeping their unbeaten record intact. The defeat for Queenstown was their second in three outings so far.

In the day’s other clash, it was smooth sailing for Dartmouth Determinators, who, on the back of a first-half hat-trick from Sachel Marks, trounced Tapakuma, 4-0.

Marks was on target in the 12th, 33rd, and 35th minutes with the other goal scored by Martin Garraway in the 27th minute.
