Racing into the right side of the penalty area to receive a through pass from the midfield area, Morris would evade the onrushing Campbellville custodian, before placing his flat right footed effort down the middle of the goal.

Western Tigers would seal the hard-fought win nine minutes later as Dakshawn Matthews added his name to the scorer’s sheet with a clinical finish.

Running into the left side of the penalty box, Matthews would place his first time effort to the left side of the net, after latching onto a perfectly placed cross from the left side of the penalty area. In the earlier matchup, Beacons brushed aside Santos by a 6-3 margin.
