The victorious Den Amstel FC clinched a hard fought 2-1 win over defending champions GDF FC.

Den Amstel FC secured a hard-fought 2-1 victory over the Guyana Defence Force (GDF) FC in the opening match of a double-header last night at the National Training Centre in Providence, as the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) Elite League Season VII continued.

Deon Alfred opened the scoring for Den Amstel from the penalty spot in the 16th minute, giving his side an early advantage. However, GDF responded in the 33rd minute through a composed finish from Chris Macey, leveling the score heading into halftime.

The decisive moment came in the 60th minute when Jomal Robinson fired home to restore Den Amstel’s lead — a goal that ultimately proved to be the winner.

The result gives Den Amstel a continuity to their solid start to the campaign, while GDF will look to bounce back in their next outing.

At press time, the second match of the evening between Slingerz FC and Police FC was still underway.
