Brave Täby Tigers cannot deny VRS - Rugby's first TEST

VRS-RUGBY 135 - Täby Tigers 15

Tiger’s courage was not enough to prevent VRS - RUGBY winning the first TEST and completing their third phase in TOUCH 7 - a side at NÄG yesterday.

The scoreline did not reflect just how hard Täby Tigers pushed the VRG - RUGBY, but poor discipline at critical stages and missed opportunities again proved costly.

Täby Tigers had four players and they have to play mixture - which meant that they played half the match with only 4 men on the own play on the pitch . They were down to 3 men for almost six minutes in the first half when VRS - RUGBY started to play fast play in a very quick succession.

Despite that handicap, Täby Tigers stuck to their task gamely and rattled the VRS -RUGBY with their forward aggression and committed defence in the first half.

Had they managed to turn a superb attack, sparked by their own center who caught the kick-off at the start of the second half, and splendidly sustained by our full back, into a try Täby Tigers might have ended a run of hundred straight defeats by the VRS - RUGBY.

HARD DEFENSE ITS THE KEY...

But VRS -RUGBY tap-tackled in full flow and they managed to man the barricades for long enough to deny T Tigers the try.

Instead Tigers lost some of their shape after 10 minutes in the second half and VRS - RUGBY sealed victory with 14 well-taken tries in the final 15 minutes.
