the St Elizabeth derby belonged to Munro. Their attacking midfielders, Nicholas Collins, Timar Lewis, David Chambers and Shaw, were sharp in attack.
However, the STETHS defence, expertly marshalled by their outstanding Clifton Woodbine held firm.
“This is nothing new for us. We still have a long way to go,
but we came into the game knowing Munro will never be able to defeat us here at home,” Omar ‘Rambo’ Wedderburn, STETHS coach said.
“We just know how to get past them and this was visible today again. We will now prepare for our next set of games with confidence,” Wedderburn told the Sunday Gleaner.
Lance Morgan, Munro coach, blamed inexperience for his team’s loss.
