USA, Great Britain and Samoa big winners
 |
USA, Samoa and Great Britain were the big winners from the second round of games for the 2008 International Cup at Royal Park, Melbourne.
Proving to be one of the favourites of the tournament, USA 11.6 (72) defeated Denmark 1.4 (10) but the loudest roar of the day came when the Danes scored their only goal.
Great Britain and the Peace Team, consisting of Palestine and Israeli members, played in front of a large crowd at Ransford Oval. The Peace Team scored their first goal ever in the International Cup through Moshe Lagisa, however, Great Britain proved far too strong winning 20.15 (135) to the Peace Team's 1.2 (8).
In the other match Samoa defeated India, another first-timer to the International Cup, by 110 points -- 16.20 (116) to 1.0 (6).
The third round of matches begin at 3pm are South Africa v China at McAlister Oval and Papua New Guinea v Nauru at Ransford Oval.
