The University of The Bahamas (UB) Mingoes men’s soccer team started slow against Inter-Nassau FC-17 in their Bahamas Football Association (BFA) match, but quickly picked up the pace and started scoring. They went on to win easily, 4-0.
The match took place on Sunday night at the Roscoe A.L. Davies Field. It started off very physical with four yellow cards being issued in the first half, and it was lackluster in terms of scoring. The match went into half, 0-
Mingoes’ midfielder Peter Julmis scored in the 78th minute. He controlled the ball in the box and was able to find the back of the net. The team celebrated that goal with an almost iconic reenactment of a world cup celebration. That goal put the Mingoes up 1-0.
In the 84th minute, Mingoes’ winger Stanley Grand Pierre controlled the ball outside of the box and fired a shot past the opposing goalie for a 2-0 lead for the Mingoes. After that goal, the team celebrated again.
Grand Pierre wasn’t done yet. Taking the ball deep in the box, he was able to find Mingoes’ striker Morgan Wood for a goal in the 87th minute. The Mingoes were now up 3-0.
One more celebration for the team was on the way. Mingoes’ winger Obryan Hinds had a few misses earlier in the half but was not going to be left out. In the 90th minute, Hinds found the back of the net for the 4-0 lead which proved to be the end result.
“We came out here to show that we are the best team in the league,” Wood said. “We plan to be dominant even when the competition isn’t what me may think is on our level. We played hard right up to the end of the match and the score showed that today.”
The Mingoes now sport a 3-0-2 win/loss/draw record in BFA action and are expected to play the Dynamos at 3:30 p.m. on January 21, 2024. League action resumes in January at the Roscoe A.L. Davies Field.
