Momentum shifts
A brief blip in which it seems GHRFC may be turning the game around, with just over twenty minutes left on the clock.
GHRFC President, Luca Marsella, told Roar:
“Today’s performance was definitely disappointing, but promising in the sense that it highlighted what we need to work on. Both are incredibly strong teams that put in so much hard work. We had some incredible individual performances, and the set pieces and positional play we’ve been working on in training really showed. We got done a bit dirty with the conditions today, but thank you for all the support and thank you to everyone who came down.”
