FIESTA Inter put a blot on L&S/Kyung-Seung’s unbeaten record when the two teams clashed last Sunday in week four action in the Northern Mariana Islands Football Association-organized Men’s Open Football League at the Oleai Sports Complex.
L&S, which previously held a 3-0 record, suffered a 3-1 loss against Fiesta Inter in the final match of the day.
Fiesta Inter controlled the match from the opening kick-off, keeping the high-scoring L&S in check most of the time.
Fiesta Inter’s defense stifled L&S scoring leaders Jahangir Hossain and Jetsada Ponsutjit foiling their every scoring attempt.

Guerrero scored early in the first half with Yosh Gabaldon adding another goal.
L&S got on the scoreboard on a goal by Dave Duenas.
The only blemish on Fiesta’s record was a scoreless draw with Real Mariana on Jan. 7. Fiesta Inter now holds a 3-0-1 win-loss-draw record.

Teammate Yok Soejing netted the other two goals against Korean One.
Jong Koo Gil scored the lone goal for Korean One to avoid the shutout.
In other matches, Real Mariana escaped with a 3-1 victory over the PTI Guardians while Alliance slipped past the Independents, 2-1.
