Police FC twice took the lead yesterday but eventually had to settle for a 2-2 tie with W Connection in the final match of round two at the Ato Boldon Stadium in Couva.
The result means that the “Lawmen” remain unbeaten, just two games into the 2017/17 Pro League season while Connection are yet to register their first win this term.
Police won 3-0.

Poacher Keion Wilson opened the scoring for Police after 21 minutes for his second goal from as many matches while the servicemen also benefitted from a second half own goal by W Connection and St Lucia international left wing back, Kurt Frederick.
But, on each occasion, the “Savonetta Boys” found an answer as midfielder Kevon Goddard mustered up a first half equaliser before Daniel Diaz closed the score summary in the 62nd minute.
Police’s tie means that defending champions Central FC are already the only team with a 100 percent record this season, as they followed up an opening day triumph against Connection with a similar 2-1 win over Club Sando last Friday.
Apart from Police and Central, Morvant Caledonia United and St Ann’s Rangers are the top flight’s only unbeaten teams so far.
