Match Report

TTA report

On a muck-heap, a goalless first half passed without much in the way of incident except the loss of Marshall to injury for about 40 minutes (25). Paul scored the only goal (50) “amidst great cheering“ (GH). Thirds applied severe pressure but they too lost a player “his knee giving way from an old wound“.
