Mata hits hat-trick as Sligo snatch points at UCD (RTE.ie)

Max Mata scored a hat-trick as Sligo Rovers had to twice come from behind for victory at the UCD Bowl.

The Estonian’s ball in behind found Mata, onside this time. As in the first half, Sligo got the first sight of goal in the second only to once again find themselves behind. Though owning much of the ball, Sligo had a right let off five minutes later as UCD were close to regaining the lead. A terrific run from Fitzgerald five minutes later deserved more as the Sligo winger watched his shot flash wide of the far post. Though Sligo enjoyed much of the ball and created the majority of the chances in a riveting game, they needed two harshly awarded penalties to turn the game around. Max Mata scored a hat-trick as Sligo Rovers had to twice come from behind for victory at the UCD Bowl.

Again, Rovers started the second half brightly. In the end, Rovers held out for their first win of the season, now with four points in their opening two games. Mata claimed the ball instantly, and made no mistake from the spot to make it 2-2 with his second of the game. Frank Liivak found Mata on the right, with the New Zealander allowed to take a touch before driving past Healy from an angle to level the scoring. And, with eight minutes on the clock, the 24-year-old netted his second penalty of the evening. Max Mata scored a hat-trick as Sligo Rovers had to come from behind twice for their first win of the season.
