Future for VG United ‘looks bright’

VG United then overcame Old Madrid FC, 5-2, with goals from Jahemm Abraham (2), T’Kiah Richardson, Jezaan Demming and Qu’yl Billingy, whilst, for Old Madrid FC both Keldan George and Glensford Palmer scored.

“We had some new players in the team and had to make adjustment, but they settled down well and moved the ball around to create opportunity,” commented Coach Jermain Abrams.

“It was also the first game in a while and it was good to see how they responded to Old Madrid equalising. The future for VG Utd looks very bright.”

Abrams and his U18 team were disappointed when Old Madrid found themselves short of players following a bout of illness and had to concede the game, in which VG were going to give some of their younger players a go.
