Whites
win Noel Vassallo Cup
[25/05/03]
The
newly-crowned Gozo Champions Nadur Youngsters seem to be determined not
to leave anything behind! A victory against Zebbug Rovers on Sunday was
no easy task. In fact 120 minutes were not enough for the whites to
snatch the Noel Vassallo Cup as the Gozo Stadium scoreboard was still
reading a 2-2 score. The whites went two goals ahead in the first 30
minutes with goals by Edoardo do Nascimento (23rd) and Chris Camilleri
(30th). Yet the Rovers surprised the crowd with two goals in the first
15 minutes of the second half.
Teddie
Bajada's boys combined graft with craft to dominate large swathes of
possession against an eager Rovers side. A final match sealed with
penalty shoot-outs may have been a cruel blow to Zebbug Rovers, but it
definitely rewarded the most enterprising team.
