OLD ROAD UNITED JETS ARE REGULAR SEASON CHAMPIONS
The St. Kitts and Nevis Football Association (SKNFA) Premier League regular season has officially been decided, with MFCR Old Road United Jets crowned champions following another commanding performance on Saturday night.
Old Road extended their impressive unbeaten run with a 3–1 victory over Honda Newtown United, securing top spot on the table heading into the highly anticipated Final Four playoffs.
Jardel Isaac opened the scoring in the 28th minute, giving the Jets a 1–0 lead at halftime. Newtown responded in the 63rd minute through Devauhn Mills, but Old Road quickly regained control. Tiquanny Williams converted from the penalty spot in the 67th minute before adding his second just three minutes later to seal the 3–1 result and confirm Old Road as regular season winners.
In a previous interview, Old Road’s Coach Alexis Morris said they are aiming to extend their record and go the rest of the season unbeaten. “Yes, we have been the first team to qualify for the (Final Four Playoffs), but we don’t want to take that for granted. We have not accomplished anything as yet. And it’s like I told my guys, every time you set your feet on the pitch, just think about we’re on zero. We’re just starting the season, and we need points,” he said.
