Rugby: CH record patchy 24-22 win against Soldiers
Army Sports Club almost had it all but CH&FC scraped through after a clinical performance to secure a thrilling 24-22 win in a second round match of the Dialog Rugby League played at the Racecourse ground on Saturday (16).
With the Soldiers winning their first round battle against the Maitland Place club 24-18, a thrilling game was expected and it eventually turned up to be one.
Both teams had their tallies made up with four tries each, but what mattered was the kicking.
CH's Samuel Maduwantha, who converted two tries stood out tall against Army's Gayan Salinda, who managed to put over one from four attempts depicting the impact a pair of perfect kicking boots could do.
However the Soldiers gained much of possession, gradually and systematically, as they are known for on the battle field, and led through the first half to take a 17-12 lead at halftime.
With four tries each on to their totals, both teams earned bonus points and the Soldiers earned an extra bonus point for their losing margin.
