THEY MAY NOT HAVE been among the list of national Independence awardees, but that didn’t stop L.G Kick Strike Force from being one of the biggest winners on Independence Day.
Before a packed National Stadium last night, the Bayland based team walked away with the coveted first prized cheque of $100 000 after capturing the LIME Pelican Football Challenge with a workmanlike 1-0 extra-time victory over T.S Strikers.
With the game still goalless at the end of full time, Carl Joseph’s powerful header in the 104th minute was all Strike Force needed to get past a pesky T.S Strikers unit, which dominated for large periods during the game.
And when the whistle blew for the final time, it sparked wild celebrations on the field of play, as supporters converged on the pitch to join the team in their moment of glory. (RB)
