In the second half, the Islanders had an early scare, but then began to slow the game down probing for gaps behind the Stars defense and using the pace of Henroy Mitchell to create chances up front.

Williams played a roaming role combining defense with support for the attackers and it was from his cross that the Islanders scored the opening goal.

A corner was half cleared and Ray Phillip, unmarked in the penalty box, headed home for his first goal of the campaign.

“It felt sweet, I’ve been training hard over the past few days and I finally scored the goal I have been working for,” commented Phillip.

Williams made sure of all three points with a curling free kick from 20 yards out.
