Slingerz win Kashif and Shanghai tournament

Slingerz FC beat Alpha 2-nil at the 25th edition of the Kashif and Shanghai Football Tournament on Sunday evening at the Guyana National Stadium, Providence.

The second half had much more fireworks than the first which ended as nil all. Devon Millington showcased his footwork before letting loose a shot that rocked the right hand corner of the net to send the crowd into a frenzy in the 56th minute.

Alpha in a last-ditch effort to equalise sent all 11 men forward for a corner in the final minutes of the game.

However, the missed opportunity only resulted in a counter attack by Slingerz as Alpha’s custodian was unable to reach back to his post which allowed Millington to take aim at an empty goal to register Slingerz’s game sealer in the 90th (+4) minute.

Slingerz FC are now $2,000,000 richer after the win on Sunday.

Meanwhile in the third-place playoff, Pele FC defeated Riddim Squad 2-1.
