The Belizean Premier League (Caribbean Motors Cup) table has a familiar look to it as the opening (Apertura) season reaches it's halfway point, with double-reigning champions Belize Defence Force five points clear at the top. In the most recent series of games (delayed for one week by Hurricane Richard) Daniel Jimenez's 93rd minute goal gave BDF a crucial 2-1 victory over their nearest challengers, FC Belize. Belizean international defender Everal Trapp had given BDF the lead on the half-hour, only for Christian Okwonko to equalise with ten minutes remaining. Okwonko currently shares in a five-way tie at the top of the goalscoring charts on four goals, alongside teammate Jarrett Davis, the aforementioned Jimenez, Deris Benavides (San Felipe Barcelona) and Leon Jones (Belmopan Blaze). San Pedro Sea Dogs currently lie bottom of the table having lost all seven of their games so far, scoring only six goals and conceding twenty in the process.
In the Honduran Primera Division, two Belizean interantionals were on the scoresheet as Deportes Savio defeated Platense, 3-1. Deon McCauley opened the scoring for Deportes, with Harrison Roches grabbing a late consolation for Platense.
