Latvia 0

Malta 28

The Malta national team stormed to a superb victory against the semi-professionals of Latvia, away in Riga.

When they played at Hibs Stadium earlier this year they had led at half time, only to fade into defeat against the fitter and bigger Latvians in the second half.

This time there was no stopping the rampant Malta boys as they destroyed Latvia 28-0.

Scorers in order were O’Brien penalty, Collins try, R. Holloway try, Kirk try, O’Brien conversion, O’Brien penalty, O’Brien try.

Because Malta scored four tries they win a bonus point as well as the three points for a win.

Now they have to take on Lithuania at home, next week, 5 November at Hibs Stadium.
