Four different players were on target as Siparia Spurs outclassed PAL United 4-1 to end the first round of the Southern Football Association Petrotrin Super League as table toppers.
Gregor Meriez, Kerwyn Baptiste, Len Mejias and Marlon Lewis scored a goal each for Spurs while Owen Branker netted for PAL in the loss. With the win, Spurs completed its ten-match first round campaign with 25 points, three more OJ Saldado FC and La Brea All Stars PYC.
However, OJ Saldado which secured lopsided back-to-back victories over Giants (6-0) and Diamond United (4-1) qualified for the Anthony Cook Big-Four tournament, contested among the top two teams in each division by virtue of its superior goal-difference.
In the Roy Jagroopsingh Second Division, T&TEC ended the first round as front-runners following a 4-2 triumph over CFE. At the end of its five matches, the “Electricity Boys’ lead with 12 points and was joined in the Anthony Cook Big-Four competition by second placed, Brick Field Falcons, which is a point behind.
