The
penultimate match of Group A was Son Gual versus
Vodafone Rangers. Son Gual would go into the
game on a high following their first win of
the day and a second would put them solidly
in 4th position. A draw would also secure 4th
but a defeat would mean a 3-team tie on 3 points
and we'd go to goal difference. Vodafone Rangers
had to win to have any chance of making the
Plate – anything less and they would be in the
Wooden Spoon.
So,
lots to play for. We were treated to a great
game and an enjoyable spectacle. The game could
have gone either way and we reached half-time
level at 1-1. Another 1-1 half meant we finished
all square at 2-2 with a Matt Skeath double
for Vodafone Rangers. It was their first points
of the day but could not prevent them finishing
6 th and they would indeed play in the Wooden
Spoon play-off later this afternoon.
Son
Gual would qualify for the Plate though courtesy
of a strong finish to the group and 4 points
out of a possible 6 which would see them finish
in 4th.
