FULLER
LONDON, England (CMC):
Reggae Boy Ricardo Fuller continued his late-season goal-scoring form, in the English Championship yesterday.
THe Jamaican extended his fine run of form since the start of the year with his sixth goal of the season to help Southampton to a comfortable 2-0 win over relegated Millwall at home at St Mary's.
The 26-year old capitalized on Millwall's all-out push for an equalizer late in the game, tapping into an empty net in injury time with the visitors caught throwing everyone forward.
Fuller's strike doubled the tally for Southampton after World Cup-bound T&T striker Kenwyne Jones gave the hosts the lead from the spot in the 13th minute after he was fouled.
Meanwhile, another Trinidadian, Stern John, scored his second goal of the Easter weekend.
The 29-year old John, who will lead T&T's charge at the World Cup in Germany this June, was again instrumental in Coventry City's performance, this time earning them a point against Leicester in a 1-1 draw at home.
He converted a Jamie Scowcroft pass in the 11th minute to equalise for Coventry, after Richard Stearman had put the visitors ahead two minutes earlier with a stunning 18-yard drive.
On Saturday, John also found the net as Coventry beat Luton 2-1. He now has eight goals for the season.
