RASHAD JULES was the hero for Barbados on Sunday night.
It was his brace which propelled the local football team to a 2-1 win over Martinique at the Usain Bolt Sports Complex.
Jules’ two well taken strikes jolted an initially tentative home side into life and pushed them to a 2-0 second half lead before Martinique replied, giving Barbados a late scare.
Stephan Abaul pulled the visitors to within a goal in the final minutes, but the home side managed to hold on in the end, much to the satisfaction of the sizeable crowd on hand. (ML)
