Match point. Ray Davies, the team's performance coach, who was the tactician on board the Kiwi boat in 2013 when Oracle saved match point in eight straight races to reclaim the America's Cup, isn't frightened by the position Team NZ find themselves in. AdvertisementHe also knows his team, and backs his young charges, and contemporary Glenn Ashby, to get the job done. Now the Auld Mug once again within reach, Davies said Team NZ will be doing everything they can to ensure they can convert match point tomorrow. Davies said he is thrilled with the way the crew have been performing over the Cup match, after coming under pressure through the challenger finals.
