HARBOUR VIEW STORMS INTO THE WESTERN UNION KSAFA
JACKIE BELL KNOCKOUT FINALS AGAINST BOY'S TOWN!
1-0 Defeat of Waterhouse courtesy of Kavin Bryan's
early strike!
As the Club prepares to celebrate it's 33rd
Anniversary on Sunday, March 4th.
The week ahead promises much added jubilation if the
Team can cap of achievements with high performances
following being already crowned End of First Round
Champions in the Premier League in November 2006.
Firstly, in the Western Union KSAFA Jackie Bell
Knockout Final on Wednesday and then on Sunday we
travel to St. Elizabeth to try and clinch victory over
resurgent Reno in the End Of Second Round Premier
League Final.
It was a sudden blow inside the far upright that
decided the winner as early as the 4th minute.
Quick thinking in reacting to the infringement on
Bryan, the newly promoted National striker ended the
game that had hardly begun, as he raced away from a
stunned defensive unit caught napping as Robert
Scarlett quickly took the awarded free-kick midway
the half.
As former National defenders Marco McDonald and
Desmond Breakenridge watched in dismay as he bolted
from them to place his scorching left-footer out of
reach of the surprised goalkeeper.
The Cheerleaders made merry, supporters chanted while
the bench hailed the newest conqueror, dubbed
"Titalinho".
Two other glorious chances went by as strike partner
Fabian Taylor robbed Breakenridge in possession to
advance goalwards but his early chip was well handled
by the stranded custodian five minutes later.
Then twelve minutes later, Bryan was sent clear by a
three man combination only to see his shot blocked
with the goalkeeper at his mercy.
The half closed at the same 1-0 scoreline.
Waterhouse attacked more in numbers but seemingly
without conviction as a patient Harbour View occupied
the territory behind the ball, choosing to
counter-attack occasionally through a now emerging
Kemeel Wolfe and a resurgent Lovel Palmer in tandem
with twin strikers Bryan and Taylor.
Wolfe weaved his way through a maze of defenders to
strike two torpedos that were well saved and Palmer
finished high twice in quick succession, on the
alternative right side.
Bryan kicked wide and Taylor hit the upright that was
copied by the now attacking Scarlett who struck twice
from distance with his favoured left-foot, hitting the
crossbar and his second bomb spilled from the
goalkeepers grasp onto the upright before he hastily
retrieved it on the bounce.
Some of the players showing clear signs of fatigue
having just returned from the "Lunar Tournament" in
Hong Kong with the National Team, Coach Hyde started
ringing the substitutions by relieving Oniel Smith and
Fabian Taylor.
On comes Loxely Thomas and Richard West both getting
into the attacking action to launch shots at goal that
were difficult to handle as both resulting in corners
on the right.
Scarlett was also to depart in favour of Gregory
Simpson late in the game as Waterhouse looked dejected
leaving the field as the "Stars of the East" marched
into Wednesday's Final at 7pm, against defending
Champions Boy's Town, who earlier defeat Tivoli
Gardens by a similar 1-0 scoreline.
