INVESTEC COLOMBIANS had skipper Matt Watson to thank for two of their goals as the Investec Men’s Division One pacesetters won again, this time 4-2 against Cenkos Yobbos.

Watson’s men had led 2-1 in a game in which TJ Ozanne and Phil Radford were also on target for the winners.

But it was the performances of Adam Cox and Liam Roffey that really caught the eye as far as their skipper was concerned.

‘Adam has forced his way into the starting XI this season through hard work,’ said Watson.

‘He is always at training and gave us defensive cover as well as an attacking outlet on the left-hand side of midfield. Superb.

‘Liam started on the bench and didn’t moan. When he came on he had a great game and was full of running on the right side of midfield.’

Watson admitted his side had again found it hard against opponents who regularly trouble them.
