Tornados blown away by SVHA

26 July 09, SINGAPORE: The Singapore Veterans' Hockey Association brushed aside their defeat to C&C United last time out and blew Tornados away in an excellent second half showing.

Leading 2-1 at the break, a fine half time pep talk from acting manager Richard Ng galvanised the team and produced 4-unanswered second half goals to destroy Tornados.

Selvakumar R bagged 4 goals to bring his tally up to 5 for the season and George Edward added one to get him on 4 for the season. Gordon de Souza scored the second goal of the game and thus opened his account for the campaign. Kanan Packrisamy who did not score and had arrived only for the second half is on four goals to complete SVHA's 14 goals thus far, information for those stats freaks out there. It's ntoeworthy and encouraging that the SVHA's forwards have contributed all the goals the team has scored.

However, there are some old bad habits that needs to be eradicated from the masters game and the team has acknowledged that they need to work on these things before this week's encounter with table propping Khalsa.

Another win for the Lion masters would see them join SRC and C&C on 10 points at the top of the table.

Next SVHA game is against Khalsa on 1 August 09 at 6pm Sengkang 1.
