The Gisborne Herald • Monday, July 12, 2021 SPORT 21 UNITED’S HOME RUN ENDS Premiership title still in play, Challenge Cup lost FOOTBALL by John Gillies GISBORNE United lost their first league game of the season on Saturday. Maycenvale beat them 3-1 at Harry Barker Reserve to take the lead in football’s Pacific Premiership, as well as the Challenge Cup that United had held for over three years. The cup goes on the line at every home league game of the holders. Heavy Equipment Services Gisborne United won the cup from Eskview in Hawke’s Bay on May 5, 2018. Since then, they had not lost a league game at home . . . until Saturday. Gisborne United are still favourites to win the premiership. Maycenvale have finished their league programme and have 36 points from 14 games. United have 34 points from 13 games, and their game in hand is against bottom-placed Western Rangers, who have seven points. To win the league, United must beat Rangers at Harry Barker Reserve on Saturday. Rangers will be coming off an “away” win, 2-0 against Napier Marist Seconds. United should prevail, but they will need to lift themselves following a disappointing performance against a committed Maycenvale side on Saturday.
