Sec­ondary Schools Foot­ball League strik­er Khaleem Prince of Trin­i­ty Col­lege East scored a pair of goals to lead un­beat­en Queen’s Park Crick­et Club to a 3-0 de­feat of de­fend­ing cham­pi­on Harlem Strik­ers in their Group One meet­ing in Round Two of the T&T Pre­mier Foot­ball League Tier II on Sat­ur­day (Jan­u­ary 25).

The Parkites took the lead through Wis­ton Guer­rann in the 26th minute, which they took in­to the in­ter­val be­fore Prince added a quick-fire dou­ble in the 64th and 69th min­utes for his third and fourth goals of the sea­son to ce­ment the win.

With the win, their sec­ond from as many match­es, the Parkites im­proved to a max­i­mum of six points at the top of the 11-club stand­ings, the same as the Uni­ver­si­ty of T&T (UTT) and Mal­abar Young Stars.

How­ev­er, UTT is on top via a su­pe­ri­or goal dif­fer­ence af­ter a nar­row 1-0 win over RSSR FC, while Mal­abar Young Stars got a de­ci­sive item from Ger­ald Mel­oney in the 80th minute to se­cure a 3-2 win over Sidey’s FC.

Jorel Grant had giv­en Young Stars the lead in the 13th minute, but a minute in­to time added on at the end of the first half, Moses Bernard got Sidey’s FC lev­el.

Six min­utes af­ter the re­sump­tion, Young Stars re­claimed the lead, but it last­ed un­til the 69th, with Jar­lon Top­ping get­ting Sidey’s lev­el again, on­ly for Mel­oney to get the de­cider ten min­utes from the fi­nal whis­tle.

In Group Two, De­fence Force is the lone team with a 100 per­cent win­ning record af­ter two match­es thanks to a 2-1 de­feat of Cen­tral Soc­cer World in Ch­aguara­mas on Sun­day.

The Army/Coast Guard com­bi­na­tion went ahead through an own goal from CSW’s Shaquille Brit­to in the 38th minute to lead 1-0 at the break.

But ten min­utes in­to the sec­ond half, Si­mon Joseph got the vis­i­tors on lev­el terms, on­ly for Dy­lon King to fire home the win­ner for the host from the penal­ty spot in the 71st minute.
