Che Ben­ny scored a pair of goals and had a hand in an­oth­er as de­fend­ing cham­pi­on AC Port-of-of-Spain (AC PoS) eased to a 4-1 win over Point Fortin Civic in the sec­ond match of T&T Pre­mier Foot­ball League (TTPFL) Tier I dou­ble-head­er at the Ari­ma Mu­nic­i­pal Sta­di­um, Ari­ma on Sun­day.

Fol­low­ing a 6-3 drub­bing at the hands of ta­ble front run­ners De­fence Force FC, the lone team with a 100 per cent win­ning record af­ter six match­es, AC PoS was ea­ger to get back to win­ning ways and went ahead in the 26th minute when Ben­ny con­vert­ed a penal­ty-kick past goal­keep­er Dar­ren Moore, and four min­utes be­fore the in­ter­val, he curled home a gem of a left foot­ed free-kick to dou­ble his tal­ly and his team's lead to 2-0 to go in at the half.

Any hopes of a Point Fortin Civic come-back was dashed in the 76th minute when Nathan Lewis was quick to re­act to a save from Moore off an­oth­er Ben­ny free-kick, to stab home his team's third while Haile Beck­les added a fourth item in the 86th.

With the sec­onds tick­ing away, Point Fortin Civic man­aged to get a con­so­la­tion item for their long trav­els from south Trinidad with Daniel Jones the scor­er, but it was too lit­tle to late as AC PoS se­cured the com­fort­able win, their fourth in six match­es to sit third on the 12-team ta­ble with 12 points, six be­hind the Army/Coast-Guard com­bi­na­tion while MIC Cen­tral FC Re­boot is sec­ond with 15 points and Cale­do­nia AIA, fourth with ten points, the same as Mis­cel­la­neous Po­lice FC, but ahead on goal-dif­fer­ence.

In the open­ing match at Ari­ma, Ter­minex La Hor­quet­ta Rangers and Prison Ser­vice FC bat­tled to a goal­less draw.
