Scoring the first goal for the Digicel Young Kulas was something Sonia Alfred did not expect.

She adds they hit the ground running without underestimating their opponent who gave them a good fight.

“I was scared. I was mostly a game-changer in the bench and so when coach put me in the first half, I really gave it my all.”

Alfred adds they will need to work on their defence as they head into the finals this Saturday.
