An in­spired Jo­mal Williams scored a goal and as­sist­ed on an­oth­er as Di­recTV W Con­nec­tion thumped De­fence Force 4-0 in a lop­sided Toy­ota Clas­sic fi­nal at the Hase­ly Craw­ford Sta­di­um, Mu­cu­rapo on Sun­day night.

Af­ter a scrap­py open­ing 15 min­utes, the game be­gan to open up with De­fence Force strik­er De­vorn Jorsling fail­ing to con­nect clean­ly with a vol­ley off his less fan­cied right foot in­side the 18-yard box from a pin-point Cur­tis Gon­za­les cross.

A minute lat­er W Con­nec­tion, win­ners of the tour­na­ment on three pre­vi­ous oc­ca­sions was first to get a shot on tar­get, through cap­tain Alvin Jones, with a sting­ing right foot­ed free-kick from al­most 35-yards which goal­keep­er Shel­don Clarke did well to keep out low to his right.

Jones then had a hand in putting his team ahead as his in­tend­ed pass to An­dre Tou­s­saint found its way to an un­marked Williams, who was vot­ed the even­tu­al "Most Valu­able Play­er" of the fi­nal as he curled in a right-foot­er from the top left cor­ner of the 18-yard box past a full stretched Clarke for a 1-0 lead in the 21st minute.

Je­lani Fe­lix then had a chance to get De­fence Force back on lev­el terms in the 32nd, but his ef­fort was kept out by an alert Ju­lani Archibald in goal for W Con­nec­tion, while from the re­sult­ing cor­ner De­fence Force's Rodell El­cock just missed the mark with a head­er.

How­ev­er, six min­utes be­fore the break, for­ward Shah­don Win­ches­ter made it 2-0 with a close range fin­ish af­ter a clever build-up be­tween vet­er­an play-mak­er Tou­s­saint and Briel Thomas.Against the run of play in the 41st, Jer­wyn Balt­haz­ar al­so had an at­tempt on goal via a head­er turned away by Archibald.

Three min­utes lat­er it got worst for the "Teteron Boys" as they were re­duced to ten men when Jorsling was giv­en his march­ing or­ders by ref­er­ee Crys­tal Sobers.

Sobers had is­sued Jorsling a yel­low card for a foul he com­mit­ted, but a fu­ri­ous Jorsling who was un­able to re­strain his feel­ings, then saw red for dis­sent leav­ing his coach Mar­vin Gor­don with a lot to think about at the half-time in­ter­mis­sion.

Six min­utes in­to the sec­ond-half, Gor­don in­tro­duced for­mer W Con­nec­tion mid­field­er Hashim Ar­cia and for­ward Richard Roy for de­fend­er Ak­lie Ed­wards and winger Ker­ry Joseph re­spec­tive­ly.But it was the ram­pant W Con­nec­tion pow­ered by Shah­don Win­ches­ter and Williams in mid­field­er which con­tin­ued to dom­i­nate against an out-of-sync De­fence Force line-up.

In the 66th minute, the live­ly Neil Ben­jamin Jr ex­tend­ed the ad­van­tage to 3-0 with an­oth­er sim­ple fin­ish af­ter team-mate Dwight Quin­tero elud­ed de­fend­er Gon­za­les and slipped in a left sided cross. Sev­en min­utes lat­er sub­sti­tute Aikim An­drews then saw a right foot­er from an acute an­gle slammed in­to the base of the Clarke's left post while Ben­jamin fired in­to the side net­tings W Con­nec­tion threat­ened al­most at will.

Two min­utes from the end of reg­u­la­tion time, An­drews would get his team's de­served fourth goal when he side-foot­ed home from Williams cross to cap off a fine dis­play from his team.It could have been a big­ger mar­gin of vic­to­ry for W Con­nec­tion, but Clarke de­nied Williams' ef­fort in the third minute of stop­page time.

The win for W Con­nec­tion added to its pre­vi­ous tri­umphs in 2005, 2011 and 2013 and added, to their First Cit­i­zens Cup tri­umph in Oc­to­ber.Speak­ing af­ter the win, W Con­nec­tion's Tech­ni­cal Di­rec­tor Stu­art Charles-Fevri­er said, "This sea­son is al­ready much bet­ter than last sea­son when we on­ly won the (Dig­i­cel) Char­i­ty Shield."

The win­ner of the Toy­ota Clas­sic "Coach of the Tour­na­ment" award Charles-Fevri­er added, "We set out our ob­jec­tives to win more sil­ver­ware this sea­son and it's good that we have been able to win the first two tro­phies. We are quite pleased with that.

"I thought we de­served to win. We def­i­nite­ly showed that we were the bet­ter team on the night. De­fence Force dug deep but tonight they were def­i­nite­ly out­classed by us.

"They are one of the qual­i­ty teams in the league and can al­ways bounce back, but tonight was def­i­nite­ly our night."

Charles-Fevri­er said he com­mu­ni­cat­ed to his play­ers that with David John-Williams now as­sum­ing his re­spon­si­bil­i­ty as T&T Foot­ball As­so­ci­a­tion pres­i­dent, it meant every play­er and staff mem­ber now have a greater com­mit­ment to the club.

Com­ment­ing on his team's loss, De­fence Force's Gor­don said, "The send­ing off was a soft send­ing off but, but all in all I thought the bet­ter team on the night won the game."

Gor­don said his play­ers' at­ti­tude in the lead up to Sun­day's fi­nal was bril­liant and from all in­di­ca­tions he felt his team was pre­pared to win the fi­nal.

"But to­day (Sun­day) I thought de­fen­sive­ly we were re­al­ly poor, we weren't mark­ing and track­ing enough, so cred­it to W Con­nec­tion, they play one way, which is play the ball and move, a lot of give and go, and we didn't de­fend prop­er­ly."

In Sun­day's first match at Mu­cu­rapo, St Mary's Col­lege won the Toy­ota Clas­sic Chal­lenge Tro­phy with a sim­i­lar 4-0 bash­ing of North Zone ri­vals, Fa­ti­ma Col­lege 4-0.

Daniel Conoc­chiari opened the scor­ing as ear­ly as the sev­enth minute for the "Saints" while Chin­ua Bernard dou­bled the lead in the 19th.

Three min­utes be­fore the half-time whis­tle, Tyrese Spicer made it 3-0 and two min­utes lat­er Ethan Shim com­plet­ed the scor­ing.
