Wednesday <strong>June</strong> <strong>28</strong> <strong>2017</strong> SPORTS Penalty shoot-out takes <strong>Bay</strong>s to English Cup final • By Gordon Findlater FERRYMEAD <strong>Bay</strong>s handed a first team debut to 15-year-old Mikaele Rabuka on route to booking their spot in the final of the English Cup. <strong>Bay</strong>s defeated Western 4-3 on penalties at Ferrymead Park on Saturday to move into the final of the competition they won last year. With a number of first team regulars missing, coach Danny Halligan was forced to give some of the younger guns a run, including Rabuka who up until last week hadn’t even trained with the first team. “I hadn’t seen too much of him going into Saturday, but a lot of guys in the team had given me the recommendation and said he was a very talented player,” said Halligan. “I thought he applied himself very well and I can see him becoming a first team player in the coming years.” Rabuka has been with <strong>Bay</strong>s since 2009, coming through the grades. He has represented Canterbury at age-group level and has been part of the FUTURE: Mikaele Rabuka, 15, got his first taste of first team football on Saturday. ​ Mainland Football Federation Talent Centre programme. He was recently named in the Canterbury youth training squad. Trailing 0-2 late in the game, <strong>Bay</strong>s introduced the attacking midfielder with 15min to go. Their late comeback involved two scrambling goals to Geoff MacIntyre and Andreas Wilson. <strong>Bay</strong>s goalkeeper Adam Highfield was the star after extra-time, saving two of Western’s attempts from the spot to lead <strong>Bay</strong>s to victory. <strong>Bay</strong>s will play the winner of the Coastal Spirit and Cashmere Technical semi-final, which is yet to be scheduled. <strong>Bay</strong>s now turn their immediate focus to their Mainland Premier League match against Nomads United at English Park on Saturday. <strong>Bay</strong>s are currently second on the league table. Sumner keen to move on after one-point defeat • Gordon Findlater SUMNER HAVE a tough pill to swallow after a last minute converted try saw them go down to Shirley 25-26 at Burwood Park on Saturday. The final act of the division one, section two metro rugby game was full of drama. After scoring on fulltime, Shirley were left with a conversion to win the game. The shot at goal narrowly missed. However, the kick was retaken after a Sumner player was heard yelling during their charge down attempt. Shirley’s Nathan Smith didn’t miss on the second attempt, ending Sumner’s seven-game winning streak. The usually dependable first-five Nik Cumming would have been wishing he had the same luxury, making just two of his seven attempts at goal for Sumner. While Sumner coach Martin Dodgson was frustrated with the way the game ended, he said the decision to allow the kick to be retaken was correct under the rules. He was more upset about the number of players offside who were not penalised. He said rather than dwell on the result, the team were determined to use it as fuel going into Saturday’s clash with High School Old Boys. “The team got together at the end of the game and decided that however we’re feeling at the moment, we use that going into next week,” said Dodgson. The game against Shirley got off to a slow start with the home side taking a 5-3 advantage into half-time. However, in the second half, Sumner didn’t muck 2 Latest Christchurch news at www. around with No 8 Dylan Nel crossing the line early on before the opposition regained control to lead Sumner 19-10. Sumner introduced game-breaking winger Poasa Waqanibau midway through the second half and he made an immediate impact. Several minutes after being introduced, Waqanibau crossed the line before later setting up Cumming with an impressive off-load. With less than 10min to play, Tom Crozier scored for Sumner to give them a 25-19 advantage before Shirley’s last minute heroics. On a brighter note, Sumner will have close to a fully fit side going into their home game against High School Old Boys. Dodgson is expecting to have the services of key players Tom Manly and Wes Mauafu, who will both return from injury.
