AUSSIES COME BACK

AUSTRALIA pulled their game together in the second hockey test of the five-match series to beat South Africa 3-1 at Pretoria Technikon on Sunday after leading 2-1 at half-time. Goals by Scott Webster (2) and Lachlan Vivian Taylor gave the visitors the advantage after the tourists lost the first Test 3-2 in an upset on Saturday. South Africa’s goal came from a combination effort with Brenton Key whipping the ball past the Aussie defence for Greg Nicol to put past the right upright. Brian Myburgh made severlal basic errors in goal with Vivian-Taylor’s goal and the second by Webster, who had earlier been sent to the cooler for chopping. South Africa were also not helped by their continual breakdown in midfield.
