After the opening skirmishes in the recently returned Guinness Greatest of the Streets, the 16 teams that progressed following last weekend, headed into their campaign for further progression in the Georgetown zone last night.
The National Park tarmac was host to at least 500 fans of street football, as the group stage got underway. In the opening game Lodge All-Stars persevered to come out 3-2 victors in a challenging encounter with Albouystown.
LA, a youthful outfit started the game aggressively against a visibly unfit Albouystown side and were duly rewarded on one of their many forward forays with Carl Griffith netting in the sixth minute to open proceedings. As the opening goal bolstered LA’s confidence, they made two additional strikes through Anthonio McArthur and Chai Williams in the 11th and 15th minutes to put LA in sight of a comfortable victory with 4 minutes remaining to full time.
