KINGSTON, Jamaica — Montego Bay United hold a slim lead over defending champions Cavalier after the first leg semi-finals of the Jamaica Premier League at the National Stadium on Sunday.

An own goal deep into time added at the end of the second half by Adrian Reid junior gave Montego Bay a 1-0 edge going into Wednesday’s second leg at the same venue.

The western Jamaica club dominated the game but failed to get past the Cavalier defence until a mistake by the midfielder tilted the game in their favour.
