Miro Vlastelica’s men should have capitalised on a ten-man Rockdale City Suns outfit in their round one clash, but poor finishing let the Reds down. Glenn Trifiro especially bore the brunt of the club’s major chances United 58 had in their opener, with the attacker missing two guilt edge opportunities that should have sent the three points to the home side. Lacking in an out and out striker, United 58 is set to welcome back Patrick Antelmi from suspension while former Central Coast Mariners attacker Josh

Blacktown City 1 Mt Druitt Town Rangers 0 Blacktown City welcomed new boys Mt Druitt Town Rangers to the National Premier Leagues NSW Mens competition in a scrappy but dominant match at Lily Homes Stadium decided by a solitary own goal to the unfortunate Rangers defender Nick Trimble. In typical season opener, local derby, the pace was urgent and full bodied with Blacktown City penning their visitors back with the high press that produced several half chances without any clear-cut opportunities. The spoils went to Mark Crittenden’s men though as the final whistle went much to the delight of the home fans.

Sydney United 58 0 Rockdale City Suns 0 Round 1 of the 2019 National Premier Leagues NSW Men’s season saw Sydney United Sports Centre play host to a tense stalemate between Sydney United 58 and a ten-man Rockdale City Suns outfit on Sunday night. The eagerly-anticipated clash between two historic rivals ended scoreless, despite the visitors playing a man down for over an hour following new recruit Sasa Macura’s 31st minute dismissal for two cautions. It was also a return to his former ground with Panni Nikas, the much-hyped signing for the Suns, being kept quiet by his former teammates. Notably, a frenetic conclusion saw United 58 custodian Thomas Manos stand tall to deny clear- cut chances for Howard Fondyke and substitute Alec Urosevski, whilst his teammate Glenn Trifiro failed to convert two golden opportunities up the other end. The hosts may well have snatched all three points in second half stoppage time, as Matt Sim’s curling effort was denied by the woodwork to the dismay of the spirited Edensor Park faithful.
