Sideline and Ogle Street recorded contrasting wins when the 2023 edition of the Beterverwagting (BV) Inter-Block Football Championship commenced on Friday evening at the Community Center ground.
Sideline crushed Onion Field 3-0 in the feature contest of the opening night. Following a scrappy first-half period that failed to produce any conversions or noteworthy moments, Sideline broke the deadlock when Jemar Harrigon scored in the 50th minute. Latching onto a lobbed pass inside the area, Harrigon controlled the ball with his chest before slotting his effort into the back of the net.
Terrell Walcott was next to etch his name on the scorer’s sheet in the 63rd minute, uncorking a powerful right-footed strike into the far corner from outside the 18-yard area to increase the score to 2-0.
