Ernest Harlston delivered a second-half masterclass, netting three times to propel KrooTown Road Community to a lopsided 7-0 victory over New England Community in the COFA Elephant Bet Inter-Community Champions League on Saturday.
Harlston completed his hat-trick with strikes in the 40th, 50th, and stoppage-time (90+2) minutes, capping a ruthless attacking display at an unconfirmed venue.
The rout began inside the opening minute, as Alusine T. Kamara converted early to set the tone. Kali Jalloh added a fifth goal in the 64th minute, and Malam Barrie made it six in the 72nd, before an uncredited scorer rounded out the tally in the 87th minute, according to match records provided by the organisers.
The result underscores KrooTown Road’s offensive firepower in this year’s competition, though the league’s official standings and the opponent’s prior record were not immediately available for context. Efforts to reach COFA officials for post-match comments on the playoff implications were unsuccessful by press time.
