Feidians: 2 Mount Pearl ; 0 - Keith Walsh Photo

Feildian's opening goal deflects past Gerald Connolly


Feildian's advance to Challenge Cup Final


This game may very well go into the history books as to what occurred and how Mount Pearl's coach Walt Mavin used his starting players, rather than how his team performed in this semi final contest. I will elaborate more on this in my next Coach's Corner article. For the Feildian's, it was a greater overall effort from the team,the solid goal tending of Matthew Prim, and a couple of breaks that led the Feildians to victory. The Feildian's first goal came from a deflected shot, struck by the Feildians Colin Browne from about 30 yards out at the 28 minute mark. The Feildians second big break resulted in a penalty shot, when Gerald Connolly knocked down a Feildian attacker, despite the fact the ball was outside the 18 yard box. It was David Webb who accepted this gift as he scored on this charity shot at the 84 minute mark. The final result is the fact that the Feildian's have advanced to the 2008 Provincial Challenge Cup Final against St.Lawrence.
