Final Scores; Scone Polo 7 – 5 Park Place | Venue: The Queen’s Ground
Making his 2022 season debut at Guards Polo Club on The Queen’s Ground, Adolfo Cambiaso led Scone Polo into an important match against Park Place to determine the top team in League Three. Finishing with just one goal in the game, Adolfo Cambiaso’s impact was felt on the defensive end as Scone Polo effectively contained the Park Place attack. After conceding a field goal to Facundo Pieres just seconds in, Scone Polo would prevent Park Place from adding their second goal until the third chukka. This low-scoring, tightly marked match left scoring opportunities hard to come for both sides, with the teams remained tied at 1-1 through two chukkas.
Scone Polo’s only goal came off a Penalty 2 conversion from Poroto Cambiaso. Striking first, Scone Polo scored three consecutive goals to begin the third chukka, with Poroto freed to move forward in the game with father Adolfo protecting against the counterattack. A Penalty 2 for Facundo Pieres signalled the only other attack for Park Place as they trailed 4-2 at half-time Held scoreless for the second time through four chukkas, Park Place saw their deficit grow to four as Scone Polo began to find their footing.
Stifling multiple Park Place attacks, Adolfo Cambiaso would jump on an errant pass and shoot from more than 60 yards out for his first goal to end a decisive fourth chukka. In desperate need of some goals, Park Place found some hope after Francisco Elizalde and Will Harper found the mark, but Scone Polo dominant on this day, unwilling to concede any open chances to goal. A final goal from Sam Wisbey, filling in for David Paradice, ensured a7-5 Scone Polo victory as they improve to 3-0 in their League. This win also saw Scone Polo receive the Richard Watt Cup, traditionally played for as a league match in the Cartier Queen’s Cup Tournament.
