Colombo, Jan. 12 (Daily Mirror) - Air Force SC produced a superb second half rally to record a thrilling 17-14 victory over Army SC in their SLR Inter-Club League Rugby Tournament match played at Ratmalana.
The Airmen, who were trailing 10-14 at half time, came back strongly with a powerful performance to turn the game in their favour while collecting their points from two goals and one penalty.
Army SC conceded an early try to their opponents but came back well to snatch the lead mid way in the second half before they ended up with two goals.
Air Force SC opened the scoring in the third minute with a penalty from Gayantha Iddamalgoda. Number eight Shashika Fernando scored their first try in the 15th minute with Iddamalgoda adding the extra points.
