Chris Horrie, failed to inspire his team to victory in a pulsating match played at the University of Winchester, yesterday. Mark Lovell hammered home the winning goal for the third years a few minutes from time, to silence their critics.
“Hobbes is a traitor and he knows it,” said Grant Payne after his team lost in the dying minutes of the game. The second years had every reason to feel robbed, after having led for the better part of the game.
The match was played at a scintillating pace, with both sides displaying some deft touches. Brian Thornton, playing his debut match showed glimpses of brilliance every time he probed forward. And really, there could have been no more fitting player to set the second years on their way than Thornton, after Joey Lipscombe withdrew from the starting line-up. The third years, absorbed pressure from the onset and could have easily been beaten.
Josh Duffy, Chanin Lloyd, Joey Lipscombe,Rob Anderson and Tom Otrebski added spark to the spectacle, as they were part of the media entourage covering the match live.
Tom Hepworth from the BBC was a guest player for the second years and had a relatively good game – though his presence could not deter the resilient third years from victory. With the game seemingly heading for a stalemate, Mark Lovell hammered home the winner to sent his team into a frenzy. Horrie’s trump card Joey said he will be back for next week’s encounter.
