23-9-19 RUGBY LEAGUE PLAY OFFS


SUPER LEAGUE PLAY OFFS
4/5TH PLAY OFF
WARRINGON 12-14 CASTLEFORD
MIGHTY MATAUTIA

Adam Milner's try, converted by Peter Mata'utia, put Castleford 6-0 up at half-time after the Wolves' Stefan Ratchford had seen an early penalty kick at goal go narrowly wide.
However, a converted try from Jordan Rankin and a Mata'utia penalty sealed the win, with the Tigers holding out to progress to the next round despite a late converted score from Chris Hill.

MY OPINION
This was a battle that could have went either way and it went to the away side as I think they had more of a mentality to play for. They looked like as if they wanted it more and Warrington were more sealed to their fate
2ND/3RD PLACE 
WIGAN 18-12 SALFORD
WILLIAMS MAKES WARRIORS GO WILD

 The sides went in all square at the break as a converted try from George Griffin just before half-time cancelled out one by Wigan's Oliver Gildart in the 25th minute.
The visitors had possible tries from Joey Lussick and Ken Sio ruled out by the video referee too, with Wigan taking advantage through second-half scores from Thomas Leuluai and George Williams.
Jackson Hastings, who will join the Warriors next season, went over just after the hour to set up a grandstand finish

MY OPINION
This will be one of the matches of the season but Wigan have shown in this match that they are quite happy to finish second in the Super League but in the next few weeks will be their first real tests. As for Salford they have an interesting match with Castleford next week that will see who will meet the big gun

FA CUP LAST 16 4-3-20

FA CUP LAST 16 PORTSMOUTH O-2 ARSENAL SOKRATES GOT SKILLS Arsenal were fortunate to go into the break a goal up, and it came from an unlikely source as Sokratis controlled a volley into the bottom corner from Reiss Nelson's dangerous cross Nelson created the second shortly after the break, taking on his man on the right before delivering for Nketiah to bundle home from close range https://www.skysports.com/football/portsmth-vs-arsenal/report/423680 MY OPINION Arsenal have not had the best of seasons so far so this might be their only way into Europe. A weakened team can do a go0od job here as for Portsmouth they can now concentrate on whether or not they get promoted    CHELSEA 2-0 LIVERPOOL WILLIAM ADDS TO ANFIELD WOES Mere seconds after making a splendid double-save, one of them from a Willian drive from distance, Adrian has a shocker. Trying to play the ball out from the back, Fabinho loses the ball, gifting Willian a shooting opportunity from about 2...

CONFEDERATIONS CUP GERMANY 4-1 MEXICO GREAT GORETZKA Leon Goretzka scored twice in the opening eight minutes as Germany beat Mexico 4-1 in Sochi to join Chile in the Confederations Cup final. The Schalke midfielder swept home a Benjamin Henrichs pass from 20 yards and then slotted home from Timo Werner's through ball. Werner then tapped home Jonas Hector's pass to increase Germany's lead. Marco Fabian scored a brilliant 35-yard strike for Mexico, before Amin Younes added a fourth for Germany. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/40410798 MY OPINION Germany has shown in this competition that they are definitely the team to watch out for in this competition and moving forward. I feel that you cannot call them anything but hot favourites against Chile as they look impressive in world cup qualifying while Chile do not look as impressive . I say Germany 2-0 Chile in final LEDVIA TALIN 0-2 CORK CITY BRILLIANT BUCKLY  Goals from Garr...

ALL IRELAND FINAL REPLAY DUBLIN 1-18 0-15 KERRY MIGHTY MURTUGH An absorbing first half ended with the sides locked at ten points apiece, though in the early exchanges it was all one-way traffic as the blue Dublin wave crashed into the Hill 16 end. After nine minutes they were 0-05 to 0-01 ahead and Paul Mannion dropped one short to keeper Shane Ryan. Such was their dominance at this stage that another point would have put real distance between the sides. Kerry tried route one early on, bombing ball after ball into David Clifford and getting absolutely zero return. Mick Fitzsimons took over the marking duty on Clifford from Jonny Cooper, who played a spare man in defence having been sent off before half-time in the draw. The Kingdom also tried a full-court press on Stephen Cluxton’s early kick-outs early, but the Dubs’ captain, just like the television ad, brings us the wonderful every day and he pinged the ball to his men, drawing appreciative applause from the crowd...
