Week 2 (18 Apr)
RESULT: DRAW 4-4
SCORERS: Howie 2, Scott, Murray
We can look at this as two points well and truly wasted, as we couldnt hold onto a 4-1 halftime lead against an understrength Rovers side who will all be grateful to their keeper who made a truckload of saves to keep his side in it. Howard ripped up the wing and scored two goals, Murray with his first official Pumas goal, and Scott with a trademark thunderbolt saw us lead comfortably at half time, however our whole game was littered with missed opportunities. We may have scored four, but its not such a good return from around 20 shots, and as we slackened off in defence we let the opposition back into the game, and despite still making chances of our own, the last ditch clearances from the Rovers defenders and massive saves from the goalie and the crossbar all came to their rescue. Lots of shooting practice for us at training this week I think
