Defence Force earned a come-from-behind 2-2 draw against the Trinidad and Tobago Under-20 team as both teams featured in a rescheduled bmobile National Super League encounter at the Marvin Lee Stadium, Macoya on Friday.
The national youth team was unable to maintain that advantage, as Kayode Thomas pulled one back in the 34th and Julius Balondemu equalised in the 54th.
A quartet of rescheduled matches will be on today’s agenda, with the TT Under-20s squaring off against ALCOA Carenage United in the first of back-to-back matches at the Marvin Lee Stadium. The “Eastern Lions” Joe Public meet St Francois Nationals in the other game in the double-header while mid-table outfits Defence Force and M&M Harvard will square off at the Army headquarters in Chaguaramas.
And the cellar-placed duo of Crab Connection and the University of Trinidad and Tobago (UTT) are due to clash at Frederick Settlement, Caroni. With the exception of the St Francois-Joe Public tussle, which begins at 5.30 pm, all the other games will kick off at 3.30 pm.
