Legends 3 Santos 10 7

SANTOS 2010 7   LEGENDS 3

 Ormeau Pk    Tues 27^th JULY 10

 With the LEGENDS badly depleted by holidays the Santos current squad ran out eventual winners in a high scoring game which saw the Legends tire late on to concede late goals and give the scoreline an unbalanced look. Indeed as in the earlier encounter it was the Legends who scored first in the 3^rd mins Gerry Henry bundled as loose ball home.  Playing with great verve in the early stages the Legends stamped their class on the game with the elusive Chris Scott running the show. With Paddy Bonds oozing class at right back and Fergal O Keefe adding the industry it was no surprise that Paddy Flood in the Santos goals was constantly in action. But it was to be a lapse at full back as Robert Clarke underhit a back pass to his keeper M          arty Mc Keown who although making a great save saw the ball run on to Sean Mc Mullan who guided it home. Then disaster as Murphy was robbed and Fitzsimmonds fairly blasted a stunner to leave the Santos squad 2-1 up at half time

 The second half belonged to Brian (Sligo) Kinsella. A stunning performance was marked with a glorious hat trickThe second which saw am amazing change of feet around keeper Mc Keown to slide home was a gem.  Scott got his deserved goal with a scorcher to pull the scores closer and Bonds converted a spot kick for the Legends to bring a respectable look to the score line but a screamer from the tireless Roger Theis , reward for 100% grafting and a bullet from Mc Cormick ended the scoring on another very entertaining game.

 The last in the series now is late August and as both teams have a win each a classic is expected.
