BY PAUL A REID Observer writer Monday, July 22, 2013MONTEGO BAY, St James — Club Stars FC and Heights FC will contest the St James Football Association Guardian Life Division Two final following exciting one goal wins over Somerton FC and Faulklands FC in the return-leg semi-finals played at the UDC Field on Thursday.Faulkland FC rallied from a 0-2 deficit to earn a 2-2 draw against Heights on Thursday, but Heights’ first-leg 1-0 lead gave them the edge 3-2 on aggregate, while Club Stars beat Somerton 2-1 in the second game for a 4-3 aggregate win after the first leg a week prior had ended 2-2.Both teams have earned automatic berths into the Division One competition next season by virtue of making it to the final.After coming from 0-2 down to earn a draw in the first game, Club Stars took the lead when Micoi Myers scored the first of his double in the 16th minute.The lead lasted until the 78th minute when Marvin Ellis headed a corner past the Club Stars goalkeeper to tie up the scores once again, 1-1 on the day, and 3-3 on aggregate.Myers responded soon after with a low shot that found the net to give Club Stars the lead for good.Heights took a 1-0 lead into their game and Jason Taylor scored twice in the 25th and 32nd minutes to extend their lead.Richard Robinson, in the 41st minute, and Gary Taylor, in the 56th, cut the deficit to one, but that was as close as they would get.Errol Anderson (foreground) of Somerton shields the ball from Club Stars’ Sean Sutherland in last Thursday’s St James Football Association Guardian Life Division Two return-leg semi-final at the UDC field.
