In the first of two games played at the Lauderhill Sports Complex last Saturday Unity F.C. played against the Palm Bch. Pumas in a north versus south contest as the Caribbean American Soccer Association (CASA) Super League continued.

Unity FC led by player coach Garnett Deer put on a stellar performance against the Pumas. The Palm Beach outfit was very well organized, and they stemmed every tide that unity threw at them to end the first half 0-0.

However in the second half unity brought on the speedy Terence Goldson which gave them more depth up front as he constantly threatened the Palm Beach defense. Unity would eventually take the lead midway through the second half with a twenty five yard scorcher from midfielder Asmeade Grawayne which proved to be the winner. Final score Unity 1-0 Palm Beach.

The second game was the feature game of the night with western FC versus Athletico.

This game lived up to its expectation; Athletico had the edge in the first half as they moved the ball from the back to attack with precision passing. They would take the lead in the thirty fifth minute with a mistake from Western’s goal keeper. He seemed to have misjudged a high ball from Athletico Freddeck Saurel which went over his head into the goal. Athletico kept the 1-0 lead at the half.

In the second half Western brought on player manager Hector Wright to spark them offensively. They would eventually equalize in the half with a controversial goal from Rowan Reid from a dead ball. They took a quick free kick while Athletico were still lining up there defensive wall. However the goal was awarded by referee Peter Isaacs even though the Athletico players protested. Isaacs would eventually issue a red card to an Atheletico player before resuming play. When play resumed the game got very physical and out of control with some poor officiating from referee Isaacs. Both teams went for the winner, but the game remained tied. Final score Western 1 Athletico 1.
