2-1 and two late late goals from Carra and Stevie G settled the win. Some may say that this is due to luck, but we need to create our own luck. Should Carra not be alert and not take a shot, there will not be an equalizer; Should Stevie G gave up after his wonderful freekick was blocked by Turnbull, there will not be a winner. These are great turning points of the game, and we won the game with the never say die spirit.
