Moments after MBU goalkeeper Aian Miller blocked a powerful header from point-blank range on the goal line with his foot, UWI FC took the lead.
A weak clearance from the MBU defence went to Smith, who had the time to strike the ball into the lower right hand corner of the goal as MBU conceded for the first time on over 200 minutes.
Two changes, both forced through injuries, served to help revive the MBU team and one of the substitutes, Wade Daley, set up the equaliser when his cross from the left beat the UWI FC defence, leaving Ottey with a wide open goal to tap the ball into in the 72nd minute.
UWI FC retook the lead three minutes later when another defensive breakdown allowed Belnavis some space and he curled a low hard shot past Miller into the far left corner of the goal.
Miller put the game out of reach of the MBU team when his shot from the top of the box passed the body of the diving Miller in the 85th minute.
