Montego Bay United (MBU) recorded an easy 4-1 victory over Molynes United in the Jamaica Premier League (JPL) competition at the UWI-JFF Captain Horace Burrell Centre of Excellence in St Andrew today.
MBU, who were recording their first win of the season from three matches, achieved the feat courtesy of a brace from substitute Ladrick Haughton in the 80th and 84th minutes, as well as Ewan Barton’s third minute strike and substitute Michael Nosworthy’s 68th-minute effort.
Cleon Palmer scored what had been an equalizer for Molynes United in the 36th minute, but had to watch as his side were run over later on.
Molynes would end the match with 10 men when Tyrique Wilson was sent off in the 74th minute. He received a straight red card for a dangerous tackle.
