 Zacara,
from the beginning to the end
Zacara beat Geebung
10-7 and won the Al Habtoor Royal Windsor Cup, the most important medium
goal tournament in England..
Zacara came stronger
right at the beginning of the match, as Rookie Baillieu took the ball
quickly from the throw and ran fast toward the posts to score the match´s
first goal.
Meanwhile, the balanced
attack from Geebung allowed them to get closer in the score during the
second chukka, as Gareth Evans and Pepe Araya settled in midfield. In
the third chukka, Zacara took a 4-2 advantage and went into half time
leading 6-3, with goals by Rookie Baillieu and James Beim.
The second half of
the match started with Pepe Araya scoring for Geebung, but the ever present
Rookie Baillieu was in charge to keep Zacara´s advantage, and he
scored to secure a 7-4. The final result was sealed in the fifth chukka.
A penalty conversion and a field goal by James Beim, plus one more goal
from Oliver Curdmore gave Zacara a 10-4 lead, as Pepe Araya scored the
last goal for Geebung through a penalty conversion.

Cup went to Asprey London, as they beat Clarita 10-9.
