Sherman David (86) rifled home seconds later to crown the powerful statement made by the Tigers that they are the team to beat in this tournament.

The action in the tournament will continue on Friday at the GFC with the first of a double that was rescheduled from last week.

Riddim Squad will open the evening against Grove Hi Tech, while defending champions Pele are down to face Seawall FC.
