Winter's first goal came off a nice cross by Jose Ferraz.
Winter picked up his second goal after Leo DeSmedt sent a ball into the box and Winter was able to finish in front of the goal.
CFC took a 2-0 lead into the half time break.
New Olreans scored their only goal in the 77th minute giving them new life.
Minutes later Jester defender Simon Nett recieved his second yellow card and was sent off.
CFC forward Chris Ocheing subbed in late in the game and made good on his playing time scoring in stoppage time.
