New Road Eagles continued their undefeated run in the Stag Beer 5-aside-football tournament, defeating Showtime by a 1-0 score line on Wednesday at the Vergenoegen Rice Mill Tarmac.

Paul Rodney ensured the Eagles record remained spotless as he found the back of the net through a 10th minute strike. In the other matchups, Tuschen Up-Top-Youths overcame Jetty Gunners by a 3-2 margin.

Shane Boyce gave the Gunners the early lead as he netted in the first minute. Shawn Williams would then double their lead, scoring seven minutes later. John Waldron would then cut the deficit to one for Tuschen Up-Top-Youths as he scored in the ninth minute.

In the final matchup of the night, Vergenoegen All-Stars and Stewartville played to a 1-1 draw. Tyrone Lewis gave the home side the early lead with a 12th minute strike. However Marvin Henry would earn a share of the spoils for his side as he netted in the 19th minute.

Also progressing to the next round in the event was Georgetown side Broad Street who defeated fellow city unit Future 1-0. Broad Street in the earlier matchup of the night went down to Showstoppers by a 2-1 margin and needed to secure the win to progress.

Future failed to secure their path out of the group due to goal difference despite defeating Showstoppers by a 1-0 margin in their earlier matchup. The action is slated to continue at the same venue tonight with several matchups.
