Mitre 10 Cup Highlights: Southland v Counties Manukau
- 1094
Counties come away with an impressive and very important away win. Southland will have happy with the tries they scored and the fight they showed, but in the end Counties were just too strong. Southland struggled with the pace that Counties ran their game. They gave away crucial penalties and Counties made them pay for it. Southland will need to take a good hard look at themselves as they had an opportunity but let themselves down in the end. Both teams have tough assignments next week. Counties are at home to a rampant Wellington and Southland are at home to Otago.
