Munro defeat STRATHS FC 1-0

Negril, Westmoreland- WFA U17 football champions Munro College defeated Zone A leaders STRATHS FC 1-0.

Munro without the likes of  Kaneil Harrison, Amin Miller (Ace Striker), Ryan "Blacka Shine" Dyer, Sanjoe Whitehall, Cameron Bell, Akeem Forbes (Goalkeeper), Brian "Patto" Patterson, Malik Cummings and Demali Morgan dominated the game.

Munro found it difficult to put away multiple chances against a team they beat 5-0 last season. The STRATHS goalkeeper had a good game along with their burly no nonsense stopper who is a Dacosta Cup stand out for Little London High.

Munro celebrates as Shaunavan Desouza's Corner Kick is deflected into the Goal

Striker Chavez Anglin created the first chance of the game when he fired powerfully at goal, but saw his shot foiled by the goalkeeper. Centre Forward Levar Dunchie who had a peach of a game could have added to the score, but his shot went high and wide of the right upright.


It would take the genius of U16 stand out and Dacosta Cup reserve midfielder Shaunavan Desouza to put Munro out front. Munro won a corner on the left, and with the minutes sliding away, Desouza curled the ball towards the near post, catching the STRATHS defense out of position resulting in a deflection into the goal.

With the win, Munro who have a game in hand are now a point behind Negril FC, and may need only two (2) wins from the three (3) remaining games to annex the Zone. With first and second place guaranteed to leave the Zone, Munro is in the driver's seat. The point standings are as follows:
