PENGUIN TOO GOOD FOR MANCHESTER IN CHAMPIONS CUP
ONE win, one defeat - that was the story for City of Manchester as the Champions Cup weekend reached a dramatic finish at Coventry today.
The women's title was comfortably retained, Manchester racing into a 5-0 lead in the first period against Liverpool Lizards and eventually winning 10-5.
But there were shocks in store in the men's final, which also produced a 5-0 first quarter lead - for an inspired Penguin team. The Londoners went on to win 11-8, their first Champions Cup success. It also deprived Manchester of the double after their domination of the Super 5s. See News page.
