LEJANDRO WILLIAMS scored a 36th minute equaliser as 1976 FC Phoenix drew 1-1 with Defence Force to move up to third spot in the Premier Division of the CNG National Super League.
But the fans at the Canaan Recreation Ground saw Phoenix fight back, and levelled the scores shortly before the half-time interval.
Matura Re United battled to a goalless draw with table-proppers Stokely Vale at the Matura Recreation Ground while the other two games on Thursday ended with 3-3 results. At the Montgomery Recreation Ground, Bethel United and NLCB La Horquetta SA shared the points, with Kelvon Charles (63rd and 90th) and Azimideen Leith (86th) netting for Bethel, after La Horquetta stormed to a 3-0 lead through Anslem Jackson (14th), Kern Roberts (15th) and Nathan Julien (18th).
And there was a similar sixgoal thriller at the Maracas Recreation Ground in St Joseph between Real Maracas and Police.
Kerwyn Bartholomew (54th), Shaquille Smith (60th and 88th) found the back of the net for Real Maracas, while Kelon Williams (28th and 80th) and Dwight Elliot (45th) scored for Police.
