Quarter final cup match

Another wet and windy day at EM for a cup match. This time Stanford le Hope we're entertained at the Manor. Played in wet and muddy conditions you may have expected a dour , mistake ridden game . Thankfully that was not the case! Though there were handling errors by both teams throughout the match, both team played expansive rugby. Manor were 17-5 up at half time , thanks to trus by Pierre, Farouq and a great individual effort by Henry . The second half started at a frenetic pace, with SLH attacking constantly. A try in the corner by SLH closed the gap to 17-10, with SLH increasing in confidence. EM soaked up the pressure and turned on the style on the last 10 min. With 3 great tries , 2 to Farhad from fullback and the last on full time by Nye , who, following a break by Pierre , received the pass to score under the posts. final score 34-10. An entertaining game.
