PFC blanked HFX before 4,367 fans at Starlight Stadium

As soon as he felt the nudge from Pacific FC forward Reon Moore, HFX Wanderers captain Andre Rampersad knew it was game on Saturday.

Moore and Rampersad were teammates last month on Trinidad and Tobago in its 2-0 loss to Canada in the CONCACAF play-in game to see which national side would meet defending World Cup champion Argentina in the opening game of Copa America this summer.But not in club play.“Yes, it’s football,” said Rampersad, when asked if there was much chirping between Moore, himself and fellow Trinidad and Tobago-capped Halifax player Ryan Telfer.

Other than that, HFX had pretty much bottled up Moore, a splashy off-season signing, and the rest of PFC’s vaunted attack.Moore needed just one opportunity to make a difference. HFX had the better of the play for the most part with 58 percent possession as PFC goalkeeper Emil Gazdov earned his clean sheet with some astute parrying and clearing.
