Transcript
00:00The Good and Faithful came out for the Queen's Park Cricket Club members' eight-a-side football
00:05tournament.
00:06The rivalry is usually high for this competition, which features 33 teams.
00:11It's a competition that has been in existence since 1979.
00:16Matches went on for 30 minutes, with 15 minutes per half.
00:19There were nine matches taking place on the night, all gripping in their own right with
00:23the promise of a nail-biting finish.
00:26Even Zidane would be proud looking on for his possible replacement in the midfield.
00:31Earth Energy in white and blue taking on Jab Juve in black in the 46-53 age category.
00:38Was this the play of the match from Robert Caesar?
00:42This game ended one-all with the equalizer from their captain, Kamu Laird, and it sealed the
00:47title for Jab Juve in the division, while Team Overwatch came second, one point behind.
00:54Other league winners on the night included defending champion Team Bliss in the under-35 category,
00:59Shepard Securities in the 36-45 age group, and Cannes Poultry in the over-60 category.
01:06Hearts Carnival were the playoff champions in the 36-45 age group.
01:10Moving on to the knockout final in the 54-60 age group.
01:13We know of his son, but can captain Gary Griffith II play football?
01:18Well, it turned out to be a busy but worthwhile final for him and his team, Security Analyst
01:24Services, against the BRICS.
01:27SAS had already won the league, coming away unbeaten, and they were hoping to double up.
01:34You could not keep him out of the game, whether in defense or making advances up front.
01:38He had a few chances as well to put his team ahead, but a boot stood in his way.
01:43There was some spice whipped into this corner that left a sting of venom, too hard to handle
01:49I suppose.
01:50Bricks were always in the match though, as this shot just went wide of the target.
01:55And how about this for defensive skills from champion Trinbago Knight Riders manager Colin
02:01Board.
02:02Mr. Board probably knows Dwight York is looking for a left back, hence the added passion on
02:14display.
02:15He had a good game.
02:16And who could blame them for being moved by the environment in a final?
02:21SAS left on Lucas stunned with a winning goal, George Vieira the scorer.
02:26Is he related to French football sensation Patrick Vieira?
02:30With a 1-0 lead, the game got tense.
02:36Griffith had them to punish and seal the match.
02:39Could he score?
02:40Fatigue began to step in as both the sides found it difficult to find the target.
02:45In the end, one team would win the title and it would be SAS.
02:50Double G gets a bruise and some soreness here and there, but he takes away the MVP in the
02:5554-60 age category.
02:58His son would be proud as the football tradition continues in QPCC's eight-a-side football competition.
