It took Paddy Cook just 12 minutes to put VEC ahead in this Premier Division match which was switched to Sacred Heart Astro. The league leaders equalised 5 minutes before the break and then went ahead 5 minutes after the break when a Roc Celtic player headed the ball onto the arm of a VEC defender and the assistant referee flagged for a penalty! Further controversy followed in the 63rd minute when the assistant referee failed to see that the home striker was in an offside position when putting Roc 3-1 ahead. Finally, a sweet strike in the final 10 minutes put a gloss on the scoreboard for the home team.
