Division Three : KCU 4ths 3-2 Manakau United Hotel

Kapiti Coast United outlasted Manakau Hotel to win 3-2 in a tight encounter at Weka Park on Saturday afternoon.

KCU took a lead in the first half, before Manakau equalised with a well taken goal from Jamie Lamplough to go into the halftime break level.

Kapiti also struck first in the 2nd half to grab a 2-1 lead, but Manakau found a reply through Josh Sannazzaro who received the ball 25 yards out and beat a defender before striking a fierce shot that sped past the keeper and dipped under the crossbar to level the scores.

Both sides then went in search of the winning goal and it was KCU who scored the winner with just a few minutes left, finishing off a quick counter-attack to claim the victory.

Josh Sannazzaro picked up the man-of-the match award for Manakau for his efforts upfront, while Chris Henry and Jamie Lamplough also impressed with solid efforts.
