Director of Sports Christopher Jones, handing over the championship trophy to the GDF captain in the presence of teammates and supporters, following their 2-0 win over Grove Hi-Tech in the Guyana Football Federation (GFF) ‘Super 16 Year-end Classic’ champion, at the National Track and Field Centre, Leonora.

Guyana Defence Force (GDF) was crowned the inaugural Guyana Football Federation (GFF) ‘Super 16 Year-end Classic’ champion, dismissing Grove Hi-Tech 2-0 on Monday, at the National Track and Field Centre, Leonora.

Despite dominating possession in the contest, the army unit was held at bay by the dogged East Bank Demerara unit, as the first half ended scoreless.

Their attacking pressure would eventually be rewarded in the 58th minute, as they were awarded a penalty kick, following a clumsy challenge inside the box.
