A hard-fought draw vs CCFS yesterday. Ellerslie started the game completely dominating and the pressure paid off in the 6th minute when Nathan Mascoll won a penalty and Joshua Payne scored. They continued the pressure and were unlucky when Shezek Scantlebury's goal was ruled out for offside. CCFS then started to grow in the game and a missed kick from a goal kick gave them the opportunity to equalize. In the 2nd half, both teams had chances but Ellerslie had the better chances as 2 goal-line clearances from CCFS stopped them from getting the 2nd goal. MOTM performance from Richard Burke impressed everyone including the CCFS coach and Kebra Bruce also put in another strong performance and were the stand-out players. The draw made it a little bit more difficult to get promoted, however their next game vs Harrison College on November 15th is a must-win.
"Football was the winner yesterday where both teams gave their all and could have won the game. Unfortunately, we were missing 3 key players that in my opinion, with them, we would have won." - Coach Kareen Worrell
