Police hold Guaya to 2-2 Super League draw

Police held League One leaders Guaya United to a 2-2 draw last Sunday, as action in the Trinidad and Tobago Super League continued.

Guaya made the trek from the south-eastern peninsula to the St James Barracks, and striker Carlon Hughes had their fans in a frenzy when he struck in the 23rd and 25th minutes.

However, the lawmen showed their fighting qualities in the second half, and earned a share of the points, through Jason Boodram (65th) and Colin Williams (90th).

WASA FC were the day’s biggest winners, as they hammered cellar-placed Bethel United 4-1 at the WASA Ground, St Joseph. Glen Walker notched a hat-trick, with items in the 27th as well as the first and second minutes of second half stoppage time, while Dwight Crichlow (34th) had the other. Ex-national defender Makan Hislop (86th) got the consolation for Bethel.

At the Fyzabad Petrotrin Sports Ground, Club Sando Moruga earned a slim 2-1 win over Siparia Spurs.

However, after three minutes of stoppage time, Kevon Clement netted the winner, for the visitors.

The University of Trinidad and Tobago (UTT) pipped Defence Force 2-1 at the UTT O’Meara Campus Ground in Arima. Ishmael Daniel (16th) and Cyrano Glen (30th) struck for the hosts, while Dexter Thornhill pulled one back, for the Army-Coast Guard combination.
