Daniel Green struck late in the first half to fire Mount Pleasant to a crucial 1-0 victory over Jamaican rivals Portmore United in Group B of the 2026 Concacaf Caribbean Cup at the National Stadium in Kingston.
The high-stakes domestic clash was overseen by a Bermudian-led officiating team, with referee Amaury Majors commanding the whistle alongside compatriot Clinton Hayward as first assistant, Angelo Doyle as second assistant, and fourth official Reon Radix.
In a cagey opening half of few clear-cut openings, the breakthrough came four minutes before the interval. Nickalia Fuller tried his luck with a rasping effort from long range that proved too hot for the Portmore goalkeeper to hold, and Green was alert inside the six-yard box to seize on the loose ball and turn it into the net.
Portmore pressed with greater urgency after the restart, but Mount Pleasant defended resolutely to repel the pressure and close out a disciplined clean sheet.
The victory delivers three vital points for Mount Pleasant, keeping them firmly in contention for a coveted spot in the tournament’s knockout stages.
