Hunt brace fires Rhyl to Motherwell win
Saturday 27 June 2009
Motherwell v RhylRHYL showed Llanelli that Motherwell can be beaten with a 3-1 victory in Scotland on Saturday.
In a boost for the confidence of both Welsh clubs ahead of their European ties, the Lilywhites caught their SPL opponents cold and went three goals ahead inside the first 11 minutes thanks to Matty Williams and a Lee Hunt brace.
Just after the break, Ross Forbes pulled a goal back for the managerless Steelmen, who expect to name Jim Gannon as their new boss on Monday, but Rhyl held out in the behind-closed-doors practice game.
