Dunbeholden moved to the top of the Jamaica Premier League (JPL) on Sunday after Dwayne Smith's added time goal gave them a 1-0 win over Harbour View at Drax Hall.

Dunbeholden now have 25 points, two more than Waterhouse, who play Arnett Gardens on Monday and can reclaim the lead with a win.

In a closely contested encounter, Dunbeholden dominated possession and created the better chances, forcing their opponents to defend desperately at times.

Their persistence eventually paid off when Smith controlled a pass under pressure inside the box and quickly fired into the roof of the net for the game's only goal.

Harbour View slipped to seventh in the standing with 13 points.
