Meanwhile, in what can best be described as a low scoring match-up compared to the two played earlier on the night where 13 goals were scored, 1st National Bank Limited took on Lazy Lagoon Trading/VSV in an encounter that went down to the wire. Ben Gillmor opened the scoring for Lazy Lagoon Trading/VSV in the 7th minute and that is how the score line remained going into the half time whistle. On the resumption Lazy Lagoon Trading/VSV doubled their margin, but 1st National Bank Limited was upped to the task as they too up the tempo a few notches and in so doing found the back of the nets in the 36th minute of the encounter when No. 12 Kerrick Duval’s Strike eluded the Lazy Lagoon Trading/VSV custodian to share the points.

The series continues today from 4:00 p.m. when J.E. Bergasse plays Windward and Leeward Brewery Limited, LIME’s against Peter and Company Limited at 4.55 p.m. and M & C Drugstore will fancy their chances versus St.Lucia Distillers at 5.:0 p.m.
