Henrik was on a goal-scoring form once again as he scored 4 goals out of Rascals’ 14 in the game. Suzanne did a superb job in saving many vital shots from Hornets despite conceding a goal. One of the remarkable incidents was a superb throw through the centre court from her following a save and Carlos scored from it.

However, Hornets played well in this game too. Top scorer of the team, Zulfadli did not disappoint his team as he managed to give Hornets hope in the 2nd period and scored against Suzanne.

Goalkeepers, John and Nadiana, also did a great job in preventing the many shots from Rascals. Without them, it would have been even more goals for Rascals.
