The St James Football Association/Sandals Resorts International Major League resumes this weekend with a series of pivotal matches that could reshape the standings in Zone B. The spotlight falls on Spot Valley High where Lilliput Rovers and Bogue FC are set for a critical rematch following their scoreless draw just one week ago. With Bogue FC currently holding third place on seven points and Lilliput Rovers trailing closely with six points—both from five matches—a victory for either side would propel them into second position.
Concurrently, WesPow Park will host the season’s first encounter between MoBay City and Cambridge United. Their initially scheduled fixture was awarded to MoBay City due to Cambridge’s unprepared field, adding anticipation to this belated confrontation.
The weekend action continues Sunday at Jarrett Park with a double-header featuring Montego Bay United Youths attempting to secure their third victory within an eight-day period against Real MoBay AFC. MBU Youths enter the match with significant momentum after two impressive performances: a 1-0 upset against Faulkland FC on Monday followed by a comeback 2-1 victory over Wadada FC on Thursday. In that match, Clevon Campbell (30th minute) and Grandahni Messado (83rd minute) overturned Leonardo Crossbourne’s early opening goal for Wadada FC (12th minute).
The second Sunday fixture pits Faulkland FC against Reggae Youths, with both teams seeking redemption after recent results. Reggae Youths managed a 1-1 draw against Norwood Strikers on Thursday, with Romario Lewis’s 43rd-minute equalizer canceling out Renaldo Waldo’s opening goal for Norwood just sixty seconds into the match.
