George’s Plain are Westmoreland FA Major League champions
LLANDILO, Westmoreland — George’s Plain FC are the champions of the Westmoreland Football Association Dujon’s Construction Major League after edging Petersfield FC 1-0 in the final played at Llandilo Sports Complex on Thursday.
Jerome Lindo’s first-half goal carried George’s Plain FC to their first Major League title and a berth in next season’s Western Confederation Super League.
George’s Plain had qualified for the final after coming from behind in their semi-finals against Little London FC, while Petersfield FC had beaten Westmoreland Police.
Lindo scored in the 23rd minute of the final and then George’s Plain held on to lift the title for the first time.
In the semi-finals, George’s Plain had lost the first leg 0-1 but came back strong in the return leg for a big 6-0 win, while Petersfield FC led Westmoreland Police 6-1 from the first leg and won 8-0 last week for a massive 14-1 aggregate.
