CR and FC in superb second half rally

CR and FC produced a superb second half rally to beat their traditional rivals Havelocks Sports Club 15-10 in an exciting Caltex Inter-Club 'A' Division League rugby tournament fixture worked off at Havelock Park yesterday.

After the scores had been level three all at half time the last year's runners-up came back magnificently to turn the game in their favour while scoring a goal and a try in the second half.

The Havies managed to score only a goal in the second half as CR and FC clinched the Commander Eustace Mathysz Trophy.

Havelocks SC opened scoring early in the first half through a 30 metre penalty from centre Atella Uaisele. CR and FC equalized shortly before half time with fly half Reza Mubarak firing across a good penalty.

CR and FC then began to dominate the game in the second quarter with Reza Mubarak scoring their first try near the corner flag. The dynamic fly half also added the extra points and CR and FC were ahead 10-3 at that stage. CR and FC virtually sealed the game in their favour when Gunaratne added the finishing touches to a splendid three quarter move mid way in the second half. Mubarak missed the conversion but CR and FC were well on their way towards victory having stretched their lead to 15-3.

Havelocks SC had the satisfaction of scoring a consolation try during the final moments of the game when wing three quarter Anuruddha Wilwara fell over near the corner flag. Atella Uaisele added the extra points. Referee: Pradeep Fernando.
