Going into the second half, Bandits level of play went from grace to grass. Their total collapse in the second half resulted in 4 unanswered goals.

Anthony Gonzales drove down the right side of the Bandits defense and sent a pass to Deris ?Columbia? Benavides who weaved through some heavy traffic and scored in the 54thminute to give Verdes the 2-0 lead. Less than a minute later, with Verdes again on the attack, second half substitute Daniel Jimenez received a pass outside the 18-yard box, beat Wilhelm ?Locho? Coye and proceeded to attack the goal. Jimenez blasted a shot off the far post into the side netting to put Verdes up 3-0. On his first play after being substituted into the game, Orlando Jimenez was cut down inside the 18-yard box and the referee called a penalty. Danny Jimenez made the easy penalty kick conversion top shelf for his second goal of the game. Being down 4-nil, Belmopan got even more careless. In the 89thminute of play, Danny Jimenez sent a pass to his big brother Orlando ?Leech? Jimenez who was wide open. ?Leech? scorched the net from point blank range to score in his debut for Hankook Verdes.

With the 5-nil victory, Verdes is now on a 3-game win streak. Bandits have now lost 2 games in a row and is in a whole heap of trouble. Word on the streets is that players are not working out. What?s up with that?
