Golden Stars, Soccer City record hard-fought victories

Golden Stars and Soccer City secured hard-fought wins when the 2nd Annual GT Beer eight-a-side Football Championship continued on Friday at the All-Saints ground, New Amsterdam.

Golden Stars edged Mahaicony 2-1 on sudden death penalty kicks after regulation time ended 2-2. Prior to the climatic finish, Mahaicony took the initial lead in the sixth minute as Ruel Chester scored.

A botched clearance from the backline following a right-sided cross allowed the onrushing Chester to slot his effort into the back of the net.
