Steelers v Giants
Published 25th Sep 2017

The Belfast Giants maintained their superb start to the season with back-to-back weekend wins over the Sheffield Steelers.

In the first game at the SSE Arena on Saturday, they ran out 3-1 victors and followed this up last night with a 2-0 win in Sheffield.

Man of the match, Colin Shields, the Giants’ all-time goal-scorer, put his side ahead last night while Darcy Murphy completed the scoring.

It was no more than Adam keefe side deserved but it could have been a different scoreline had goaltender Stephen Murphy not been in inspirational form, continually frustrating the Steelers forward line.

Next up for the Giants is an away trip to the Nottingham Panthers on Wednesday
