CABLE BAHAMAS STARS 1 DYNAMO SMIT 1
A last minute thunderbolt from Travis Yardie secured a point for Dynamo Smit in an entertaining game with very few opportunities and two goals created by geat pieces of individual skill.
In an attempt to shore up the defence , Coach Tommi moved star midfielder Yardie back to central defence and Michael Watkins in goal whilst Cable Bahamas Stars also came out with a defensive looking team in an attempt to stem a run of 3 games without a win.
The early intitative was definitely with Cable Bahamas as good work from Sam Taylor and Kevera Turnquest kept Dynamos under pressure. Good running from Andre Turnquest and Denzil Swain however meant that both teams went onto half time at nil: nil.
It took a piece of great skill from Denzil Deveaux on the left wing to put Stars ahead early in the second half. . Deveaux turned 2 defenders and whipped in a wonderful cross for Terry Augustin to head home for what looked like the winning goal . With seconds remaining however Yardie produced an unstoppable free kick which the keeper could only palm onto the post and into the goal for a deserved equalizer.
