Harlem makes it back to back

Harlem United made a successful defense of the Division One title and in the process added yet another trophy to their growing collection.

In a rematch of last year’s championship encounter played at the Windsor Park Sports Stadium on Sunday, Harlem easily proved to be the more superior club.

Harlem dominated the match from start to finish and went on to win the encounter by three goals to nil. Player of the game, Dylano Edwards opened the scoring for his club in the 6th minute of play when he blasted a right-footer to set up the win.

In the second half of play, the champions got two more goals as Audel Laville converted in the 57th minute of play for a two nil lead. Zion Emmanuel sealed the deal in the 75 minute of play to spark the celebrations.

The victory meant that Harlem, now in their 50th-anniversary celebrations, has captured two out of the three major titles contested. Congratulations to Harlem on yet another proud achievement.

Meanwhile, Middle Ham United FC will play in the Premier Division in the 2021 season. After being relegated to the Division One league last season, Middle Ham United FC gained promotion after they defeated LA Starz by two goals to one in a playoff encounter on Saturday at the Benjamin Park in Portsmouth.

Curtney Augustine and Ryan Matthew converted for the winners. LA Starz FC goal came via the own goal route.
