Terry Macallister,Terry Ivany, Mark Mcginty and Daniel Lawson scored from the spot and a John Morrison penalty that resembled Roberto Baggios in the 1994 World cup final sailed over the bar and infact was worse than mr Baggios by quite some way, The ball is believed to be just reaching the moons lunar area. Paul Christie saving one of the Portland penalties on the line to make up for the earlier misjudgement of the ball finding its way through.
