A Sheldon Hope hat-trick helped contribute to the demolition of Thomas United who succumbed to Riddim Squad 0-7.

Kevin Roberts scored in the 23rd minute for Riddim Squad who firmly established a comfortable lead going into half time.
When played resumed, Sherwin Hope’s 52nd minute goal paved the way for Sheldon Hope and Roberts to complete their doubles which they did in the 58th and 59th respectively while Sheldon Hope wrapped up his hat-trick in the 60th minute.
Thomas was then forced to finish the encounter with 10 players as Lyndon Bacchus’ offence in the 70th minute earned him a red card. Meanwhile, Rangers and Huston Stars ramped to a goalless first half before the success of Joel Garnett in the 47th minute gave Houston Stars the go-ahead goal which they defended to the end for the victory.
