After the match Manager of St. Paul’s Derionne Edmeade, said he really wanted a win but is satisfied with a draw. “I think that tonight was good game…When you look at the game you realize that it was two teams really going out trying to win. I am really happy. Even though you wanted the win, we will settle for the draw,” Edmeade said.
Coach of St. Peters Austin Huggins felt his team started off well, but fell off during the course of the match. “Honesty, I don’t know what to say. I think we were going well, we were competitive, but in the end the result was 1-1,” Huggins said. The group stage of the 2024 NBGC Final Four Playoffs continue on Wednesday at Warner Park when Cayon Rockets will take on St. Paul’s United at 6pm and St. Peters FC will face Old Road United Jets at 8pm.
