Action continued on the weekend in the SKNFA Youth Leagues with matches played in Cayon and St. Peters.
On Saturday in the SKNFA Premier U13 Youth Cup Saddlers defeated NAGICO Cayon Rockets 3-1 in Cayon. Saddlers broke the deadlock early in the second half and doubled that lead moments later.
But Cayon earned a penalty and was able to get back into the game. No sooner had they scored that penalty, than Saddlers scored a stunning strike from yards out to seal the win. Goalkeeper for Saddlers Tajonne Charles said although his team won, they could play better. “They played good but they need to work on possession, some controlling and they need to take (more) shots,” he said, adding that if they follow this recommendation, Saddlers would remain undefeated in the U13 League.
