Muscat Rugby Football Club (MRFC) crushed HMS St Albans 28-11 in a friendly match that was played at the ABA ground on Wednesday.
The game started slowly but MRFC steadily took control of the proceedings. Dan Moloney opened the scoring ten minutes into play, touching down a pushover try. Johan de Lange added the conversion.
MRFC briefly relaxed as HMS St Albans responded with a try from its left winger. The home team then worked its way up-field and scored again from a pushover try with Dom Winfield logging the points while De Lange converted.
As the game went into second-half, uncontested scrums came into play, with HMS St Albans taking more possession. However, Winfield capitalised on a weak defence to score his second try and stretch the lead for MRFC. Winfield won the Man-of-the-Match award.
MRFC’s next game is against Doha at the same venue on October 14.
