Top teams emerging at Greg Beling Festival
The action hotted up on day two of the Greg Beling Festival in East London, with a number of teams catching the eye with their slick play and top results.
In the opener, Eunice was on song and on target, overwhelming Cambridge High 6 -0 on the East London side’s home Astro.
The Bloemfontein girls were resolute on defence and efficient on attack, making good use of the opportunities they created.
In the second game, Cradock HS beat Krugersdorp HS 3-0, while Brandwag suffered a 0-6 defeat at the hands of Montana.
Later, Cambridge suffered a second defeat of the day, going down by a 1-3 margin to HS Linden.
Rhenish then grabbed the spotlight. Following an impressive 4-1 win over Clarendon on the opening day, they put a halt to Eunice’s winning ways for the first time in the festival in emphatic fashion.
The Stellenbosch side out played the Bloemfontein school 5-1 on the Clarendon Astro and they kept their record clean by securing a narrow 1-0 victory over DSG Makhanda later in the day.
At the same venue, Framesby ran into a dialled in Witteberg and were handed a 1-5 defeat. Oranje, meanwhile, laid claim to being the class of the field with a 6-0 drubbing of DSG.
It was a tight battle between Pearson and Affies as both sides bent but didn’t break, leaving the match goalless at its conclusion.
At Selborne College Astro, St Anne’s were the queens of the castle as they cruised to a 5-0 victory over Hudson Park.
Saturday’s action begins with Curro Waterstone against Brandwag at 07:00, followed by Framesby against Krugersdorp at 08:15.
