Paradise overcame Litchfield United by a 5-2 score line when the Berbice Football Association (BFA) leg of the Guyana Football Federation (GFF)/Namilco Thunderbolt Flour u17 Championship continued yesterday.
While the scoreline might point to a lopsided encounter, the contest was highly competitive especially in the opening half at the Mahaicony ground.
Godwin Humphrey gave Paradise the early lead as he blasted past the custodian in the 10th minute. Litchfield responded in equal measure 10 minutes onward as Kahdon Archibald slotted into the right corner.
Paradise restored their advantage in the 27th minute as Niall Reynolds found the back of the net. It then became 3-1 in the 34th minute as Tareek Been etched his name on the scorer’s sheet.
However, the back and forth nature of the match ensued as Tyrone Pompey pulled one back on the stroke of halftime in the 45th minute.
