Bass hits double in Island draw

by isleofman.com 26th April 2008
A late penalty denied the Isle of Man victory in the final game of the Umbro Quadrangular tournament.

Kevin Manning’s side had to settle for a 2-2 draw against Northern Ireland at the Bowl.

A second half double from Chris Bass Junior of St George’s, the second an impressive free-kick, had overturned a half-time deficit and put the Island on course to end the competition with a win.

However, the late penalty denied the hosts and meant Northern Ireland pipped them for third spot.

Scotland clinched the tournament after holding the Republic of Ireland – who needed to win to take the crown – to a 1-1 draw at Ballacloan in Ramsey.
