Black River, Parottee final

Michael McLean, Star Writer

Black River United and Parottee United will contest the final of the 2007-2008 St Elizabeth FA Wray and Nephew-sponsored Major League, following similar results in the return legs of the semi-finals on Sunday.

The first leg will be played on June 12 at the Lacovia Community Centre.

Black River, coached by Clive Thompson, had to settle for a 1-1 draw with Leeds United at STETHS to advance 2-1 on aggregate. Parottee, coached by Godfrey 'Cops' Dunkley, rallied to earn a 1-1 draw and advance 4-3 on aggregate ahead of Young Brazil.

Timothy Heywood scored for Black River in the 69th minute while Leeds, the better team for most of the game, equalised when defender Christopher 'Gandhi' Salmons went high to head home an Eddie Wright corner in the 80th minute.

"We didn't perform to our best. Leeds put us under pressure the entire game because we didn't have all our best players. However, we are happy for the win," coach Thompson said.

Coach Dunkley was very happy to reach his first final.

"The game could have gone either way, but Michael Watson who scored in the 107th minute and Sheldon Brian in defence pulled it off for us," Dunkley said.
