Central FC custodian Jan-Michael Williams and DIRECTV W Connection goalkeeper Jelani Archibald were the heroes last night as Pro League leaders, Central, and defending champions, Connection, played to a goalless draw in an entertaining Couva Clasico at the Ato Boldon Stadium.

The result means that Central maintain their five-point lead over Connection although the latter team has a game in hand.
Earlier at the same Couva venue, Point Fortin Civic star Marcus Joseph maintained his impressive hot streak with his 11th goal from as many matches although it was only enough for a solitary point as a late Glenton Wolfe item meant a 1-1 tie with North East Stars.
The 23-year-old Joseph, who was last season’s top scorer, is the Pro League’s most prolific player thus far despite spending the first half of the season abroad.
At the Marvin Lee Stadium in Macoya, veteran poacher Kerry Baptiste—the Pro League’s all-time leading scorer—was on the score sheet again in a 2-1 win for San Juan Jabloteh over St Ann’s Rangers. James Antoine temporarily brought Rangers level at 1-1 in the second half before winger Shaquille Bertrand struck to ensure another triumph for the “San Juan Kings.”

Friday’s other outing featured a clash of the servicemen and Police FC had the last laugh as Makesi Lewis’ second half item set up a 1-0 win for the “Lawmen.”
