Willis Casuals 3, ABN Amro Indies 4

BEN CORMACK struck in the last minute of a dramatic final quarter-of-an-hour to ensure ABN Amro Indies maintained their 100% winning start to the season on Saturday.

The league leaders were seemingly cruising with 12 minutes remaining, having established a commanding 3-0 lead before half-time, but Willis Casuals sprung to life once J-P Baudains had given them a lifeline and they very nearly rescued a point.

There was little sign of what was to come in the first half, which Indies dominated and proved good value for their lead.

Cormack scored the opener before forward Steve Waldrom netted twice.

But an amazing period in the second half saw Casuals scored three in seven minutes through Baudains and Chris Lowin (two) to draw level with five minutes remaining, only for Cormack to snatch victory at the death.

In Saturday's other Men's Division One match, Investec Colombians beat Healthspan Unwantables 2-1.

Zak Damarell scored the opener for Colombians before an own goal doubled their lead. Kev Smith halved the deficit in the second half.
