A last gasp goal from David George propelled South Georgetown holders Sir Leon Lessons to a 3-2 quarterfinal win over Region Number seven’s D.C. Caesar Fox Secondary yesterday at the Bartica Community Centre ground.

With the score at 2-2 and conditions wet underfoot, the burly George silenced the partisan crowd as he netted in the 89th minute to seal his team’s place in the semi-final round.

It was a goal of the highest quality and came immediately after the equaliser by D.C. Caesar Fox Secondary.
