Ear­li­er, cap­tain Kay­la Ba­boolal opened the scor­ing in the 20th minute for the East Zone Cham­pi­onship Di­vi­sion win­ner.

Five Rivers, coached by De­siree Sargeant seemed to be head­ing in at the half with the 1-0 lead un­til Kiara De Leon scored the equalis­er in the 40th, to send the teams at the half tied 1-1.
