Guernsey 4, Truro 1 'WE CAN go all the way,' remains the battle cry after this ultimately comfortable floodlit hockey win at Footes Lane.

Guernsey 4, Truro 1
'WE CAN go all the way,' remains the battle cry after this ultimately comfortable floodlit hockey win at Footes Lane.
Three late goals confirmed Guernsey's place in the last eight of the EH Trophy, but they made hard work of it having scored as early as the fourth minute.
A Truro equaliser with the last hit of the first half gave the home coaching team ammunition to shake up their troops with a few choice words at the break and it worked wonders as the Greens totally dominated the second 35 and finally got their reward in the final quarter of a tie watched by three to four hundred packed around the Guernsey Hockey clubhouse.
But Guernsey can do better, admitted both captain Matt Watson and team manager Andy Graham of a performance which went flat quickly after a strong opening and the early goal.
