Dewinder Bradley, cramped hero in Antigua’s victory over Xela

This Saturday, the Pensativo stadium witnessed Antigua GFC’s victory over Xelajú MC, thanks to a goal by Dewinder Bradley that left him cramped and on a stretcher, this Saturday night on matchday 15 of Clausura 2024.

In a match full of emotions, Antigua GFC won the victory thanks to a solitary goal from ‘mutt’ Bradley in the 81st minute. However, the celebration was marred by the injury suffered by the scorer, which forced him to leave the field, reflecting the physical effort delivered.

This victory takes on great relevance for Dwight Pezzarossi’s team, consolidating its lead with 32 points. Regarding this, at the end of the match, Bradley, standing, expressed in Futgolazo Panza Verde Oficial: “Happy with the result. We are looking for big goals and today we took a big step to achieve them.”

On the other hand, it fills the team led by Amarini Villatoro with doubts, immersed in the fight to avoid relegation, along with Xinabajul and Zacapa, who now plays once morest Coatepeque at the David Cordón Hichos.

And although a point once morest Mixco next Saturday would be enough to guarantee their permanence in the league, they must remain vigilant regarding the results of the “X”, by Pablo Centrone, and the roosters, by Gerson Voss.

In the accumulated table, the Verdiblancos are not assured of their leadership either, despite the fact that they have 32 units, Municipal is stalking them in second place with 28 units, and two games to play, among them, the National Classic. This due to victory once morest Xinabajul in El Trébol with a goal from José Carlos Martínez.

In this way, Bradley’s goal represents a step forward for the colonials heading into the final phase, but his injury raises concerns regarding his availability for future matches, although in his speech Bradley shared: “I felt a pull on my calf and I thought I had injured it, but it was just a cramp.”
