Old Road Demolish Sandy Point 8-1

BASSETERRE: MFCR Old Road United Jets produced a ruthless eight-goal masterclass Sunday afternoon, crushing bottom-placed Sandy Point 8-1 to extend their unbeaten record and tighten their grip on the National Bank Group/SKNFA Premier League title.

Shevene Boston stole the headlines with a clinical hat-trick, while Tiquanny Williams added a brace in a dominant display at the National Bank Group Technical Center. Anwa Springer, Jardel Isaac, and J’Quante Fraser also found the net as Old Road overwhelmed their hapless opponents.

The eight-goal haul takes Old Road’s season tally to an astonishing 43 goals in just 12 matches, while their miserly defense has conceded only nine. Their +34 goal difference is more than double that of second-place Newtown United, highlighting the massive gulf between the leaders and their nearest challengers.

For Sandy Point, the heavy defeat compounds their relegation worries. With just six goals scored all season and now 20 conceded, they remain rooted to the bottom of the table with only five points from 12 matches, making their survival increasingly unlikely.

In Sunday’s evening blockbuster, defending champions SL Horsfords St. Paul’s United delivered a statement 2-0 victory over second-place Honda Newtown United, ending the title challengers’ six-game winning streak.

St. Paul’s extended their own winning run to six consecutive victories despite carrying a six-point deduction for disciplinary violations. The result leaves Newtown on 25 points, still six behind Old Road, while raising questions about their ability to mount a sustained title challenge.
