Valentini Scores Hat Trick as the Rovers Clinch 7th
Man of the Match, Gino Valentini, hammered in his third goal of the night with the back of his foot like a stake through the Dragon’s heart as the Rovers doubled the Dragons 6-3. In what could arguably be their most convincing win of the season, the Rovers held the lead for most of the game.
The Dragons came close to drawing towards the end of the first, but a flurry of quick succession goals from the outside by Gary, Jean Francois and Gino were enough to settle the pace of game. Playmakers Bobby and Jose had the midfield locked up pretty tight and were the key factors in many of the night goals. Solid goal keeping from Owen also ensured that Luciano Palladini, on loan from the Red Devils, was held down to only 2 goals. An aggressive defense for Gary and Hector, kept the rest of the Dragons striker at bay. Steve’s support up the field was also a key factor in opening up the oppositions defense.
Michel Bassil also made the score sheet for the fifth time this year bringing him within a goal of fellow striker and Kinatex boss Marty Bellemare.
