Coaches happy with 1-1 result

“Fair and justified.”

Those words were shared by the Grenada senior women’s football coach, Franklyn Simpson, and his Barbadian equal, Thomas Jordan, after their teams played to a 1-1 draw last Tuesday at the University of the West Indies Paradise Park.

The last time these teams met, the Bajan Belles ran away to a 4-0 victory at the National Stadium in 2010, which to date is still Barbados highest margin of victory in women’s action.

Both teams would have made significant changes since then, especially Barbados, who fielded seven teenagers, with four being debutants.
