For the first time in three seasons, St. James\u2019 Real MoBay have gained a point on the opening day of the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF)\/Lascelles Employees and Partners Co-operations Credit Union Women\u2019s Football League, playing out a 1-1 draw with newcomers Real Mona at Butter Cup Park.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n


Dannique Wilson, with a sensational 35 yards lob over the head of the advancing goalkeeper, had given the Real MoBay team a sensational start, netting the opener just five minutes in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Real MoBay could have easily won the encounter, but were wasteful infront of goal with bad decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The St. James side conceded the equalizer midway the opening half, when the home team through Dana Whyte, who let fly on the volley from some 40 yards, after a goalkeeping distribution went horrible wrong. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Meanwhile, Trelawny, the other Western team showcasing their talents, made a losing start to the campaign, falling by the odd goal in three (2-1) to Royal Lakes, formerly Monarch SC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Danielle Cummings found what was at the time the equalizing goal for Trelawny in the 70th minute after Kenesha Ferron with a brace gave the Royal Lakes team full points with the winner coming in the 73rd minute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Last year\u2019s beaten finalists, Cavaliers and Arnett Gardens, were the day\u2019s only winners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Defending champions Waterhouse also failed to seal a win and were held 1-1 by Olympic Gardens at the Drewsland Mini Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The teams will be back in action come Wednesday when another full slate of matches are played.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Real MoBay, searching for an opening win and a first in five games dating back to last season, will again be travelling, this time to Cling Cling Oval where they are down to tackle the home team, Olympic Gardens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The other Western challengers, Trelawny, contest their first home game of the campaign, locking horns with one of the debutants, Real Mona, at the Elleston Wakeland Centre, beginning at 3:30 p.m. In other games, Royal Lakes tackle Waterhouse.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
