ANOTHER standout performance from league-leading goal-scorer Kevon Woodley saw Cunupia FC go joint top again in the TT Super League standings on Sunday, with their Match Day 11 4-0 thumping win over Petit Valley/ Diego Martin United.

Woodley bagged two goals within three minutes at around the half-hour mark, before Michael Darko and Kerri McDonald netted one each in the second period to complete the rout.

Woodley’s two goals put him on 12 for the season, three more than the nearest top scorer Jason Boodram of Police FC.

Cunupia’s win, in addition to a 1-0 victory for Queen’s Park over RSSR FC on Sunday, saw both teams go level with FC Santa Rosa on 24 points.

FC Santa Rosa went clear in the standings temporarily, following a 4-1 win over Metal X Erin FC in the Match Day 11 opener on Wednesday.

The “Big Cannons” still hold the league lead, but only with a superior goal-differential of two goals more than Cunupia.

Queen’s Park had another close call on Sunday but bagged all three points courtesy a goal in first half added-on time from former national defender Yohance Marshall.

League action will resume with the start of Match Day 11 on Saturday.

FC Santa Rosa and Queen’s Park are set to play away to Metal X Erin FC and San Fernando Giants respectively.

The other matches are scheduled for Sunday.
