Boasting a line-up with six Premier League players, Tank-Weld got the lead in the ninth minute when Jonathan Williams (Waterhouse) went on a solo run and shot past goalkeeper Nickoma Rainford. Courts had two chances to pull back a goal but national goalkeeper Richard McCallum (Waterhouse) denied Andre McLean and Jermaine Oakley. The half ended 1-0, but on resumption it wasn't long before Tank-Weld went 2-0 up in the 37th minute, thanks to Kemahei Campbell (Boys' Town), who beat Rainford with a powerful shot from close range. The final goal was scored in the 49th minute when Jermaine Grey beat defender Omari Dennis and scored.
