Wales book Round of 16 spot in PM’s Cup

Defending champions Weymouth Wales booked their place in the Prime Minister’s Cup Round of 16 after veteran striker Armando Lashley’s second-half penalty secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Cave Hill in Group E action at Speightstown on Sunday.

With the game still goalless at half-time, Wales coach Asquith Howell made three changes, bringing on Ackeel Applewhaite for Kemar Headley, Jaheim Neblett for Najee Holder and Rommell Bynoe for Rashad Smith.

It was Bynoe who made a telling contribution just seconds later, when his run into the penalty area went unnoticed by the Cave Hill defence. Goalkeeper Ivan Griffith raced off his line in an effort to avert the danger but fouled Bynoe and was booked.
