Vere Phoenix defeat Molynes for first win of JPL season

Vere Phoenix United got their first win under new co-owner/ technical director Craig Butler and head coach Lenworth “Teacha” Hyde as they beat Molynes United 3-1 at Sabina Park on Sunday in the Wray and Nephew Jamaica Premier League.

Vere Phoenix opened the scoring in the 12th minute through a powerful half volley from Roshawn Oldfield.

Molynes responded immediately as Jermy Nelson capitalised on a rebound in the 14th minute to make it 1-1.

However, 17-year-old Denzel McKenzie would put Vere Phoenix back in front in the 25th minute with a well taken goal.

Despite a flurry of second half chances, Molynes were unable to find another goal as Vere Phoenix sealed the win in stoppage time with a strike from Romarion Thomas.

The Clarendon-based club now move off the foot of the table after losing their opening game to Montego Bay United.
