Golden Grove and Friendship clinched quarterfinal places Sunday in the inaugural ‘592 Beer Inter-Village Football Festival’ at the Golden Grove Community ground.
Witnessed by a large crowd, Golden Grove bested Annandale 4-0 while Friendship defeated Paradise 2-1. The win propelled both teams into the elimination round. Seretsi Huntley handed Golden Grove the perfect start in their matchup, lobbing a right foot effort from outside the box into the top right corner of the net.
Quason McAulay made his presence felt in the 18th minute to double their advantage, uncorking a powerful right foot effort from outside of the penalty area into the left side. The contest was effectively sealed seven minute later as captain Dwain Jacobs scored. It was a fortuitous conversion as a left footed shot slipped through the grasp of the goalkeeper and settled into the back of the net.
