WPYC make winning start Captain’s Bakery Major League
PETERSFIELD, Westmoreland — Westmoreland Police Youth Club (WPYC) made a winning start to the Captain’s Bakery Westmoreland Football Association’s Major League on Monday with a 2-1 win over promoted Western Sports Academy at the Petersfield Community Centre.
Okang Rose scored twice in the second-half for WPYC who had their games over the Christmas period suspended as a number of their players were called on to carry out extra duties as police officers.
Rose scored the first goal in the 56th minute, but Orlando Barnes equalised for Western Sports in the 75th minute.
Rose however restored his team’s advantage a minute later to give them maximum points.
Savanah FC took over the lead in Zone B after scoring their first win, a 2-0 margin over Chantilly Gardens at Llandilo to move to four points from three games, edging Negril on goal difference.
WPYC, Chantilly Gardens and Paul Island are all on three points each.
In the Zone A top clash, leaders Mt Grace dropped their first points of the season after they were held 1-1 by Russia at Blackness Oval.
Mt Grace still lead on seven points from three games, one more than Russia who have played four games, while Extra Flexx follow with four points.
Two games are scheduled for today — promoted Extra Flexx could take over the lead in Zone A when they take on Central Westmoreland Athletics Club at Frome, while Roaring River and Dunbars’ River will meet at Petersfield.
