MATURA Reunited maintained their unbeaten run and a shared spot at the top of the 2018 TT Super League competition, on Saturday after rallying to an enthralling 4-3 victory against Metal X Erin FC at the Ojoe Recreation Ground.

After the restart, Matura knotted the score courtesy a brace from Nick Guy in the space of three minutes. Matura continued to stretch Erin and went ahead in the 72nd minute via Isaiah Lee, before Irvin Reyes added his team’s fourth goal in the 84th minute.
