ICE HOCKEY: James Neil was the hero as Manchester Phoenix came from behind three times to beat Swindon Wildcats 4-3 at home last night.
The Nottingham-born forward sealed a topsy-turvy English Premier League game less than four minutes from time after goals from Jaakko Hagelberg, Ed Courtenay and Andre Mattson levelled matters going into the third period.
On Saturday, Courtenay was in the thick of the action, shooting four past Basingstoke in a 7-4 win. Ben Wood, Joe Graham and Luke Boothroyd were also on target.
