Hinterland powerhouse Annai Secondary was crowned the KFC Goodwill Series International Football Champion, dismissing Georgetown unit Lodge Secondary by a 2-0 scoreline on Sunday at the Ministry of Education ground, Carifesta Avenue.
The contest which was witnessed by a large crowd, was decided in the space of two minutes under the clear sky. First half goals from eventual tournament Most Valuable Player [MVP] Junior Rodrigues and Niai Mohammad in the 20th and 22nd minute respectively sealed the win for the Region #9 outfit.
For Lodge Secondary, it was a disjointed offensive performance as they failed to threaten the Annai backline for considerable periods of play. Dorwin George, Lodge Secondary’s talismanic forward, failed to provide the necessary inspiration against a well-drilled defensive line.
