Starworld Strikers soar in Pro League
STARWORLD Strikers struck forcibly in their T&T Pro League match against Tobago United at the Dwight Yorke Stadium in the sister-island Tobago.
The Southerners shut out Tobago United 4-0 in Sunday’s match to leap-frog Defence Force into third position on the standings on 23 points to the Army-Coast Guard’s 22. Kester Cornwall started the scoring in the sixth minute, but Strikers had to wait until the 64th minute for their second through Dexter Franklyn. And two goals in the final seconds, Maurice Jackson in the 90th and Andre Charles in time added completed the scoring. The Starworld Strikers Under-20s blew away Tobago United 7-0 at the same venue earlier to now hold a four-point lead at the top of the standings. Brent Julien in the third and 74th and Solomon Beaumont 20th and 51st scored doubles, while Nicholas Fortune 18th minute, Damien Fortune 49th and Andy Edwards 80th got the other goals.
