Jabloteh, Connection draw 0-0

FOUR days after they contested the final of the First Citizens’ Bank (FCB) Cup, CL Financial San Juan Jabloteh and W Connection played to a goalless draw in their rescheduled 11th round TT Pro League match yesterday. Watched by a sparse crowd at the Ato Boldon Stadium, Couva, both teams failed to capitalise on their numerous goalscoring chances. At the end of the 90 minutes, Jabloteh remained atop the standings with 29 points, five ahead of Connection. The teams are expected to face each other in another rescheduled fixture on Sunday. Jabloteh edged Connection 2-1 in the FCB final at the Manny Ramjohn Stadium, Marabella on Wednesday night. Defence Force remained in third place in the ten-team standings after a 2-2 draw against Arima Fire at the Larry Gomes Stadium, Malabar, Arima. Striker Balondemu Julius scored for the Army-Coast Guard combination before Dwane Ellis equalised for Fire minutes later.

Defender Claude Adams restored the lead for the Teteron Bay-based lads but a Dale Simon penalty ensured that both teams shared  the points. Meanwhile, national midfielder Leslie-Ann James converted a penalty to give Jane Public a 1-0 win over Petrotrin, at the Marvin Lee Stadium, Macoya on Saturday as the Trinidad and Tobago Women’s Football Association (TTWFA) 2003 season kicked off.
