The Guyanese duo of Randolph Jerome and Shawn `Bubbly’ Beveney both got on the scoresheets to help their respective teams claim victories in the Trinidad and Tobago Football Association FA Trophy round-of-16 encounter on Wednesday night.
Jerome opened the scoring for his club DIRECTV North East Stars in the 38th minute and this led to a flurry of goals as they defeated West Side Starz 5-2.
Beveney’s side Caledonia AIA got past Biche United in convincing fashion 4-1. Beveney scored the fourth goal of the match to take his team to a 3-1 lead after strikes from Ryan Stweart and Jean-Luke Rochford had given their team a 2-1 advantage.
