HIS SENIORS

3:12 (21PTS)

VAS SENIORS 2:04 (10PTS)

HIS Seniors were well marshalled by the wily fox, Leo
Dyar from Mayo and proved too much for VAS Seniors
although VAS certainly had their chances to win the
game. These chances were ably closed down in part by
the HIS defender, Muhammad Shafiai who made many
fine interceptions, set up attacks and got on the other
end of some of them to score points. Jae Hoon Choi continually ran the flanks for HIS and was a general thorn
in the side of VAS. Norihiro Miyazaki and Ansh Kapoor
showed their impressive fielding abilities for HIS and
supported the attack.
VAS Seniors played well in parts of the game and there
were some good individual displays. As a team, had they
gone for points rather than goals from the start, they
would have been closer to HIS at the end. VAS MVP was
Le Phuong Nam who scored a lovely point and set up a
few more with some intelligent passing. Pham Viet Gia
Khoa scored an excellent goal for VAS in the second half.

VAS JUNIORS 5:11 (26PTS)

This was a smashing game which would have had all
the spectators on the edge of their seats had they had
seats. In physical size, HIS Juniors were a much bigger
team which put VAS at a disadvantage. At one stage, VAS
Juniors were seven points down but fought back heroically to lead with five minutes to go. Indeed, the lead
changed hands four times in the last five minutes. HIS
Juniors ran out one-point winners of what was a tremendously exciting game.
For HIS, Jamie Martin was a colossal presence in midfield and scored the first goal after five seconds and the
last goal with five seconds to go and so well deserved to
