The final match in group B was between Tansor and Glapthorn. This match was bought forward a day because of work commitments!!
The two teams out on the pitch prior to the kick off of the final of the group play-offs.
Glapthorn won the toss and started the game.
Despite a good start by Glapthorn, Tansor were able to come back with a blistering run and go over for a try with only 4 minutes of the game gone.
The conversion attempt was easily put over, giving Tansor the lead. However ,shortly after this an offside infringement gave Glapthorn a penalty which they easily put over.
The first scrum of the game went to Tansor, and despite a good run from this position, they were unable to score.
First line out was this dangerous looking position, a bad error by Tansor gave Glapthorn another penalty right in front of the posts. The play got very tight from here with little in it for either side, but another off side mistake gave Glapthorn yet another penalty just before half time.
Half time score was Tansor 7 Glapthorn 9.
A spirited start by Glapthorn in the second half resulted in this try, which they also converted.
The resulting counter attack from Tansor was a little over enthusiastically resisted which gave Tansor a penalty that they easily scored from.
A similar situation occured the other end of the pitch, which gave Glapthorn a penalty for off side, this they easily scored from. With 5 minutes to go, Tansor were awarded a penalty just over the half way line, which they went for goal with but just missed. With the minutes rapidly ticking away, a scrum deep in Tansor's territory resulted in a drop goal attempt by Glapthorn, but this just failed to get the height to go over the bar.
Final score: Glapthorn 19 Tansor 10.
