LEIGH MINERS 22 V20 KEITHLEY COUGAR CUBS
MINERS STARTED WELL AND GOT THEMSELVES INTO A 10-0 LEAD, KEITHLEY HIT BACK TO SCORE 2 TRIES TO TAKE THE HALF TIME SCORE 12-10 TO THE VISITORS, IN THE 2ND HALF IT WAS A HARD FOUGHT CONTEST IN TERRIBLE WEATHER THE CUBS SCORED AGAIN TO MAKE THE SCORE 18-10 THEN ADDED A PENALTY GOAL TO TAKE THERE LEAD TO 10 POINTS.MINERS HAD TO DIG DEEP TO GET BACK INTO THE GAME AND WITH 9MINUTES TO GO THEY SCORED, THE TRY WAS CONVERTED TO GIVE THE SCORE 20-16 TO THE CUBS,MINERS SCORED AGAIN WITH 3 OR 4 MINUTES TO GO OR SO WE THOUGHT,THE GOAL WAS CONVERTED AND THE REF BLEW UP TO GIVE THE FINAL SCORE 22-20 IN LEIGH MINERS FAVOUR.
MINERS WERE FAR FROM THERE BEST BUT CREDIT TO KEITHLEY THEY WERE OUTSTANDING AND THEY DESERVED TO WIN TONIGHT AND IM SURE THEY ARE WONDERING WERE THEM 3 OR 4 REMAINING MINUTES WENT AFTER THE FINAL MINERS KICK WENT OVER.
SHOULD BE A CRACKER SUNDAY AS MINERS ENTERTAIN CELTIC CRUSADERS
