Club Sando continued its dominating form in the Under-16 and Under-18 divisions, as play in the National Youth League continued on Saturday.
In the U-16 division the league leaders eased to a 2-1 win over Pt Fortin Civic Centre, increasing its lead at the top of the standings to nine points. With the win Sando has moved to 21 points from its seven matches, being the only unbeaten team in the tournament.
Juliano Lewis broke the deadlock for his team with a strike in the 33rd minute, before Marcus Charles added the second four minutes later to make it a 2-0 advantage.
The scoreline remained the same until the 70th minute when Keiron Brooks pulled one back for Pt Foirtin. However, they could not get the equaliser.
In the U-18 action it took a Dwight Pope injury time goal to seperate Sando and Pt Fortin. With the match threatening to end in a goalless draw, Pope gave his team the winner with a strike in the 93rd minute to push them to 18 points from seven matches, six wins and one defeat.
