Report
CSSC London, represented by “Mario’s Fan-Tash-Tics”,
started the game under pressure following both the need to gain
trophy points and the earlier success of the ladies team. However,
they responded magnificently with a resounding 6-1 win including
a Chris Taylor hat-trick.
CSSC London began strongly, with Paul Miller coming close with
two low drives, and Chris Taylor forced a fine save from the keeper.
Yet another good save by the Barbados keeper resulted in a corner
from which London were awarded a penalty, scored by Chris Taylor.
However CSSC London were shocked when Barbados equalised almost
immediately from a penalty by Frank Holder. A truly fan-tas-tic
free kick from long range by John Waterman restored the lead, and
London never looked back. Another penalty from Paul Miller and
a goal by Chris Irwin, following a sweeping move, gave London a
4-1 half time lead.
Early second half pressure from Barbados was quelled when Chris
Taylor extended the lead with yet another penalty, and then completed
an excellent performance by scoring with a low first time shot
which the keeper failed to hold.
Results
CSSC London won by 6 goals to one.
