ydney Olympic FC host competition new Olympic go into the match with the upper hand Sboys Sydney FC on Monday afternoon in and the home ground support, but don’t write a match which has the potential for plenty of off Sydney FC who have the players and the exciting football. tactics to cause a boilover. Third placed Olympic were stung by a desperate Wollongong Wolves team last week and will be out to return to winning ways. They have lost key midfielder which has put the pressure on the rest of the team to create chances. Against Sydney FC they are sure to clock up plenty of miles in their legs with Robbie Stanton’s young Sky Blues renowned for their ability to play at breakneck speed. Sydney FC has shown plenty of promise during their maiden season in the NSW NPL top flight but moments of madness and lapses of judgement have cost them time and time again.

Wollongong Wolves FC 2 - Sydney Olympic FC 1 at WIN Stadium A resilient Wollongong Wolves outfit has held out highflying visitors Sydney Olympic to claim a 2-1 layStation®4 NSW Men’s victory at WIN Stadium on Sunday. The hosts scored both goals through men Yuzo Tashiro and Patrick Antelmi midway through the first half. From that point on they held on well. The visitors will consider themselves unlucky to have missed out on a point or even three as they continuously knocked but couldn’t barge the home side’s door down.

Sydney FC 3 - Parramatta FC 2 at Lambert Park Sydney FC defeated Parramatta FC 3-2 during their PlayStation®4 National Premier Leagues NSW Men’s clash at Lambert Park on Saturday night. The tight scoreline belying a strong performance from Rob Stanton’s men as they picked up three valuable points. Goals from Charles Lokolingoy and Juan Zapata put Sydney FC in a commanding position going into the halftime break, but a penalty early in the second half from Daniel Rezo gave the visitors a lifeline. The home side restored their two-goal lead through Chris Zuvela just after the hour, with Howard Fondyke’s late strike little more than a consolation goal as Sydney FC ran out deserved winners.

10 UNDER 20s NPLNSW.COM.AU MATCH

ydney Olympic dropped out of the top five Slast weekend after a third consecutive match without a win and face a tough examination of their credentials on Monday when an in-form Sydney FC visit Belmore Sports Ground. The Sky Blues have begun to hit their stride and have not lost since round five, maintaining the league’s leanest defensive record (9 goals conceded), including three clean sheets in their last five. The goals are also beginning to flow for David Zdrilic’s men with John Iredale notching a hattrick against Parramatta last weekend to gain outright lead in the golden boot standings with 10. Olympic will need to be wary of a Sydney FC growing in stature and confidence and are at risk of slipping further down the table with Hakoah Sydney City East and Rockdale poised to capitalize should the Blues fail to win again.
