Goal feast looms in Caroni

A GOAL splurge is expected to occur at the Frederick Settlement Grounds in Caroni today when leaders TIAHCO Stingrays host Arima Ball Masters in eighth round action of the Trinidad and Tobago Women’s Football Association (TTWFA) 2003 season. Stingrays have won their seven matches, most by convincing margins and, are virtually assured of a further three points against a Ball Masters squad that is yet to record a point in eight encounters. The second-placed Petrotrin, currently in the midst of a five-match win-streak, will travel north to the Police Training College, St James to oppose the consistent Port-of-Spain Net Shakers.

Like Stingrays, the Southern-based Petrotrin have netted 41 goals so far this season and will be looking to extend their account against the sturdy Net Shakers. The day’s toughest encounter will see Jane Public squaring off against Pro Sports Central United at the Marvin Lee Stadium, Macoya. The in-form Jane Public can gain some ground on Stingrays with a win but the Central lasses will be looking to re-assert their slim hopes for the league crown. Another team with an outside chance is Real Dimension, who will meet the struggling St David’s United at the Queen’s Park Savannah while the sliding Memphis will head west to the Diego Martin Government Secondary Grounds to meet Diego Martin Copius. The day’s other matchup will see Cruz International vying for their first point against Moruga at the Aranguez Savannah. All matches kick off at 3.30 pm.
