YYL Exco 3 - 4 HKFC Rovers |
Friday 4th March 2016 |
The mighty Exco XI, buttressed by team reps across three divisions, went down to their first defeat of the season to HKFC Rovers at HKFC earlier this week. With The ‘Co 3-4 down Colloids whippet and 9s supremo, Mark Eade, had two chances to level the scores, but was denied once by the post and the other by a fine save from Rovers’ GK Mark Devonshire. Marshaled well at the back by Adam Wise and with goals from White Youth legend Alain Lo, Steve Cairns, with a deft chip, and Nick Day with a 25-yard-thunderbolt the People’s Champions came up just short despite “wide” men Michael’s Wong and Johnson “dominating” the flanks. Big thanks to Rovers for hosting us and providing enthusiastic opposition in a humdinger of a match.
