Rangers stun D/Force; Peltier leads Jabloteh to victory against 14-year-old wielding Connection.
ttproleague.com.


St. Ann’s Rangers, thanks to some shabby goalkeeping on the opposite end, avoided a winless 2014-2015 Digicel Pro League season by defeating third placed finishers Defence Force 2-1 in the final match of the campaign on Friday in the first match of a Round Three Match Day Nine double header at the Hasely Crawford Stadium.

While in the second match, which saw referee Rodphin Harris issue a red card to either side, league runners-up W Connection (49 points) – six points behind league champions Central FC (55 points) – were defeated 3-2 by San Juan Jabloteh (31 points), who remained in a sixth place finish ahead of Police FC (27 points) and Caledonia AIA (26 points) in seventh and eight places respectively.

Connection’s starting line-up included 14-year-old prodigy Isaiah Hudson, the youngest player to ever take the field in the history of the Pro League, and 16-year-old full-back Keston Julien, who both serve the “Savonetta Boys” Under-17 and Reserve teams.

Connection started brightly thanks to a first half double by forward Jerrel Britto, taking his league scoring tally to 14 goals this season.

Britto, latching onto a neat Hashim Arcia pass inside the box in the 11th minute, executed a neat chip over Jabloteh’s Jamaican goalkeeper Shane Mattis, who was left beaten on the floor as Connection celebrated a 1-0 advantage.

Mattis was in trouble again in the 22nd minute, only able to push a 35-yard free-kick by Alvin Jones back into play but redeemed himself with an excellent low diving save to deny Hudson, a former Barcelona FC and AS Roma academy triallist.

However the Jabloteh goalie, who produced a save at full stretch to deny Arcia in the 72nd minute, was left to dry in the 27th minute when an unmarked Britto blasted in a half volley from near the back post for a 2-0 Connection cushion after a poor attempt to clear a Neil Benjamin cross landed the ball into his path.

But Jabloteh, led by 23-year-old former Connection player Johan Peltier, tied the scores in the first half before a superb second half winner by Tyrone Charles ended the match 3-2 in favour of coach Keith Jeffrey’s self-proclaimed “San Juan Kings”.

Peltier, unleashed by a pass from Charles in the 35th minute, shook off his challengers inside the box before firing low to beat Connection’s 23-year-old St. Kitts and Nevis international goalkeeper Julani Archibald with his third league goal this season for Jabloteh to reduce the deficit 1-2.

Two minutes later and coach Stuart Charles Fevrier’s Connection were in trouble again when defender Mekeil Williams' push on Peltier sent the Jabloteh midfielder to ground inside the box as he attempted to make his way towards goal. Referee Harris immediately pointed to the spot and awarded Williams (M) a yellow card but was forced to reach for his red card after being told off by the defender. Harris was also forced to show consecutive yellow cards to Jabloteh’s Damian Williams in the 90th minute after ruling a foul against the Jamaican midfielder who failed to keep his cool.

More drama ensued as Harris ordered a retake of the penalty with Connection guilty of encroachment after Archibald had made a low save to his right to deny Jabloteh’s Jamaican midfielder Adrian Reid.

But Reid on the second attempt in the 40th minute made no mistake to put his kick out of Archibald’s reach for a 2-2 score before the break. It was the Jamaican’s first league goal of the season.

Jabloteh, who held the “Savonetta Boys” 1-1 in Round One but were edged 1-0 in Round Two, finally grabbed the winner in the 76th minute.

Charles, set alight by a Peltier pass on the right, showed off excellent speed to enter the before blowing past goalkeeper Julani Archibald and hitting into an exposed net for his fifth league goal of the season in Jabloteh colours for the 3-2 finish. Charles also scored two league goals earlier this season while representing North East Stars.

Another former club of Charles, Rangers, had celebrated their biggest outing of the season, picking up the scalp of Defence Force, the side that won 3-2 in Round One before mauling them 7-0 in Round Two under previous coach Jason Spence.

After attempts by Rangers forward Jameel Antoine and midfielder Sedale Mc Lean in the 13th and 32nd minutes, respectively, and Defence Force forward Richard Roy in the 13th minute were all denied by the frame, the St. Ann’s club, coached by Ron La Forest, opened the scoring in the 42nd minute.

David Williams, with his first top flight goal, lifted a Mc Lean pass over Defence Force goalkeeper Andre Marchan before side stepping defender Jelani Felix to hit into an open net for a 1-0 lead.

But Jorsling, taking his league scoring tally 21 goals at the top of the scorers’ list this season and equalling his personal best in a season, levelled the scores 1-1 in stoppage time of the first half, with his 136th career Pro League goal, by driving a low shot off a Jerwyn Balthazar cross to beat Rangers goalie Christopher Biggette.

However a terrible mistake by Marchan in the 83rd minute to spill the ball into his own net after failing to keep grip on a floating 30-yard attempt by Sayid Freitas, handed Rangers a 2-1 win.

Defence Force, who had already consolidated their hold on third position, finished the season with 39 points, six clear of North East Stars and Point Fortin Civic, in fourth and fifth positions respectively with 33 points each. While Rangers, at an all-time low, finished the season with 5 points from 24 matches.

Action will continue on Saturday 2 May from 4 pm at the Larry Gomes Stadium with North East Stars against Caledonia AIA before the final league match on Tuesday 5 May between Point Fortin Civic and Police FC from 8 pm at the Ato Boldon Stadium following a 6 pm clash between Caledonia AIA and St. Ann’s Rangers in the qualifier match for the 2015 Digicel Pro Bowl.

Late Cummings strike earns North East Stars late draw with Caledonia
ttproleague.com


North East Stars midfielder Keron Cummings scored with two minutes of regulation time left on Saturday at the Larry Gomes Stadium to earn North East Stars a late 1-1 draw with Caledonia AIA in their final Digicel Pro League 2014-2015 match.

The draw, courtesy Cumming’s 88th minute strike for his seventh league goal this season, shot the Angus Eve coached-North East Stars up a spot into fourth place with 34 points, one point ahead of Point Fortin Civic, who must face eight placed Police FC from 8 pm at the Ato Boldon Stadium on Tuesday 5 May in the closing match of the 2014-2015 DPL championship.

While Caledonia, who moved up one spot into seventh place with 27 points, must return to action on Tuesday from 6 pm at the Ato Boldon Stadium to tackle cellar placed St. Ann’s Rangers in the qualifier match of the 2015 Digicel Pro Bowl, which is set to begin on Friday 8 May with the quarterfinal round.

On Saturday Guyana international Purnell Schultz handed Caledonia a 15th minute lead at the Malabar venue, with his 13th league goal of the season, but the Jerry Moe coached-Morvant/Laventille side were denied maximum points in the end by the 2015 TTFA FA Trophy winners North East Stars.

It was the sixth league draw this season for Caledonia, who finished with 7 wins and 10 defeats, while the Sangre Grande based-North East Stars finished with 9 wins, 7 draws and 8 defeats, 21 points away from league champions Central FC (55 points). W Connection (49 points) finished in second and Defence Force (39 points) in third.

Police deny Civic 4th spot
By Ian Prescott (Express).


Police FC ended the Digicel Pro League (DPL) championship with a 3-0 win over Point Fortin Civic on Tuesday night at Ato Boldon Stadium, Couva.

The match also brought to a close the 2014-2015 edition of the Pro League and ensured that North East Stars ended in fourth spot.

Police’s win denied Civic the point which would have taken them past the “Grande Stars” on goal-difference. Civic and Stars both ended last season on 42 points, with Civic having the better goal difference. This time, Stars (34 points), ended a point clear of the deep South team.

Civic won the two previous meetings against Police 2-0 and 3-1 this season, but were no match for the Lawmen on Tuesday. Police got goals from Christon Thomas (37th minute), Makesi Lewis (44th) and Todd Ryan (58th) from the penalty spot.

Still, Civic had early chances to take the lead through midfielder Kelvin Modeste and Andre Toussaint, before Christon Thomas shot the Police ahead 1-0 in the 37th minute, when defensive lapse allowed Shaquille Nesbitt’s low cross to reach Thomas, who made no mistake in putting his strike out of the goalkeeper’s reach for a 1-0 lead.

Lewis added a second in the 44th minute, drilling a right footer past Phillip from the right of the penalty area. And after leading 2-0 at half time, Todd Ryan converted his spot kick in the 58th minute. Referee Rodphin Harris awarded a penalty when defender Rondell Paul handled the ball.

No it was decided to forego the competition this season due to fixture congestion, lack of venues etc.
