Warriors edge Wales 2-1 in WDFA Qualifiers

Golden Warriors edged Wales FC 2-1 when the West Demerara Football Association [WDFA] Year-end Football Qualifiers continued at the Den Amstel ground yesterday.

Anthony Harding opened the scoring in the 22nd minute for Golden Warriors, flicking a header past the opposing custodian, after re-directing an initial strike from a team-mate.

This score line would remain unchanged heading into the halftime interval. However, Tefon Fraser equalised in the 65th minute for Wales, stabbing his effort into the back of the net, following a goal-mouth scramble.

However, Shalon Williams recorded the winning goal in the 72nd minute, racing onto a through pass from Harding inside the box, before rifling his effort past the advancing custodian.

The tournament will continue today at the same venue with another round of matches.

At 12:00hrs, Pouderoyen will oppose Crane, while Jetty Gunners will take aim at Beavers from 14:00hrs.

In the final match, Stewartville will lock horns with DeKinderen from 16:00hrs.
