SPURS MASTERS DESTROY ARSENAL MASTERS TO BOOK GRAND FINAL SPOT

Spurs Masters, ever the bridesmaid in past Masters event, fielded a strong side which saw Justin Edinburgh team up with Clive Wilson and Mark Stimson to sure up the defence. Masters debutant Razor Ruddock joined Mitchell Thomas and John Polston to control the midfield and with Terry Gibson and Mark Robson up front, it was the balance of the Spurs Masters squad that made the difference.

Up against Southampton in the first game, Spurs raced to a 3 1 lead, with Edinburgh, Stimpson and Wilson finding the net before Le Tissier s brilliance helped Saints recover to 3 3. Unperturbed, Spurs re-organised and destroyed Portsmouth 5 1 in their second game, Razor and Robson with a brace apiece with Polston inflicting the sucker punch late on. In their final game against arch-rivals Arsenal, Spurs consolidated, knowing their place in the final was assured - a goal from Mitchell Thomas levelled the game after Paul Davis had put the Gunners ahead.

The final against Arsenal was pure theatre. Efficient passing in the previous game by Spurs had worn out their bitter rivals and it showed, as Spurs went on wave after wave of attack, springing their defence numerous times to go in front. Moran netted twice, Ruddock, Robson, Gibson and Thomas all chipped in with a goal each and if it wasn t for Martin Hayes s consolation at the end, it could have been far worse than the 6 1 mauling it ended up.
