Santos FC and Northern Rangers recorded contrasting victories on Sunday evening when action in the second annual Banks Beer Cup Knockout football tournament continued at the Georgetown Cricket Club (GCC) ground, Bourda.
While Santos thrashed the University of Guyana 12-0, Northern Rangers edged Blueberry Hill 2-1.
In the opening game, Northern Rangers ended Blueberry Hill’s campaign in the tournament with a come-from-behind win.
After a goalless first half, Blueberry Hill went into the ascendancy with a 47th minute strike from Shemroy Dover. Ten minutes later, Sherwin Vincent brought Northern Rangers level, before Jermaine Scott dictated the outcome of the game with a goal in the 77th minute.
In the feature game, Santos managed to blast in a dozen goals against a hapless UG side.
Gerald Wittington started the demolition job with a goal in the opening minute on his way to a hat-trick, netting his other two goals in the 32nd and 56th minutes. However, it was Michael

William Europe

Pedro who was the lead man for Santos, blasting in a helmet-trick in the 17th, 28th, 48th and 75th minutes.
William Europe supported with a double in the 25th and 78th minutes, while Jermaine Bamfield (44th), Jermain Fraser (51st) and Lerone Charles (70th) added a single strike each.
The competition will continue this evening at the Tucville ground with another two games. Black Pearl will take on the Guyana Defence Force at 18:00 hours, while Police will tackle Netrockers at 20:00 hours.
