Sri Lanka Domestic Round-up Daily News - 15 August 1999 Kandy win 84/8 Kandy South Group Correspondent Carlsberg league champions Kandy Sports Club playing like a well-oiled machine made mince meat out of Air Force to beat them by 84 points (7 goals, 7 tries) to 8 (1 try, 1 penalty) to enter the semi-finals of the Clifford cup rugger tournament match played at Nittawila yesterday. At half-time Kandy led 48-3. This was the season's highest score and Kandy could have easily topped the century mark but they dearly missed the services of a reliable place-kicker as Nalaka Weerakoddy limped off the field due to an injury seven try conversions most of them from kicking distance went abegging.
