EBFA Boys U14 League

When action continued in the East Bank Football Association  Boys U14 League on Sunday, the youngsters delivered yet another thrilling day of youth football with  two contrasting matches that showcased the talent and perseverance of the young footballers. 

In the opening game, Timehri United’s Nyron Barrow, the league’s leading goal  scorer, demonstrated his exceptional free-kick prowess by scoring two stunning free-kicks against Soesdyke FC.

Barrow’s first strike came in the 35th minute, followed  by another masterful kick in the 58th minute, sealing a 2-0 victory  for Timehri United. Despite the defeat, Soesdyke FC put up a strong fight and created  several goal-scoring opportunities but could not finish.

 The second game saw a major upset as Friendship All Stars FC edged out the  tournament favourites, Swan FC, with a narrow 1-0 victory. In a fiercely contested  match filled with pace and skill, both goalkeepers delivered outstanding  performances. 

However, it was Friendship’s Brandon Bruce who made the  difference, capitalizing on a loose ball just outside the box in the 57th minute before uncorking a precise right-footed shot into the bottom-left corner of Swan FC’s goal.  Swan FC launched a desperate final attack in the closing moments, but  Friendship’s defense held firm to secure the win. 

The league action resumes next Sunday, (December 1), at the Herstelling Ground in Mocha Arcadia.

 10 am: Herstelling FC vs. Timehri United FC
