Sporting League: Game 16.
Runaway leaders Pointeso suffered their first defeat of the campaign with a three goals to two loss against plucky Red Star.
Red Star boss: ‘There’s a lot of talent in our squad and we proved that against the champions elect. We had the heart and determination to stick in the game. We were physical…we didn’t let Pointeso play their natural game in the second half. We controlled things after we scored straight at the start of the second half.’
Pundit L: ‘What did you see from the outset that you thought ‘We’ve got a chance here?’
Red Star boss: ‘I thought we’ve got to concentrate on our own game and let the rest take care of itself. We had a totally different mindset for this one compared to the defeat by Novia. I think Pointeso were thinking ‘hey this isn’t in the script.’ It was a fantastic performance by our guys – now for the match against Green Tree.’
Pundit L: ‘Good luck’
Red Star Boss: ‘Thank you.’
