Back to back wins will be the order of the day when Gauthier spurning a chance to equalise from the Sydney FC host Hakoah Sydney City East on Saturday penalty spot. at Lambert Park. The threat of relegation is becoming more and more The Young Sky Blues pulled off a massive upset last real for Hakoah with the club needing a major turn week with a brilliant back to the wall 3-2 win against around if they are to rescue their season. Sydney Olympic and confidence is sure to be high Sydney FC will be favourites for this match at home for Jimmy van Weeren’s side. but perhaps the second half of the season is the time Another upside for van Weeren is the end of the Hakoah reignites their stuttering campaign. A-League season which means he could be set to have rising stars Joel King and Luke Ivanovic more readily available over the second half of the campaign. Both King and Ivanovic found themselves on the scoresheet last week and are only going to get better as the season goes on. Ryan Teague was another impressive performer in last week’s win and the holding midfielder will be expected to star against a struggling Hakoah attack. It’s been a tough run for Hakoah over the past two months with the Gavin Rae coached side finishing the first half of the season anchored to the bottom of the table with only two wins from 11 matches. Their struggles finding the back of the net continued last round in a 1-0 loss to Blacktown City with Amaury

Sydney Olympic 2 – Sydney FC 3 at Belmore Sports Ground It was a hard-fought battle at Belmore Sports Ground on Friday night between Sydney Olympic and Sydney FC, with the young Sky Blues coming away with a shock 3-2 victory over last year’s Premiers and Champions. Sydney FC were clinical in their execution, with Benjamin Koop, Luke Ivanovic and Joel King all scoring their goals through their fast-paced attack, while Olympic struggled to convert their chances, with Alex Sanchez’s double not enough to match the energetic young Sky Blues. Olympic’s defeat means they drop out of the top five while Sydney FC climb up to ninth.

Blacktown City FC 1 – Hakoah Sydney City East 0 at Lily Homes Stadium A Daniel Araujo strike has helped Blacktown City to consecutive wins as they edged Hakoah Sydney City East 1-0 at Lily Homes Stadium. It was a match defined by the chances which were missed as both sides spurned penalties before City clung on for a hard fought three points. Araujo found the back of the net early in the second half with a clinical headed finish from a Matthew Lewis cross. The visitors had a chance to snatch a point when they were given a late penalty but it wasn’t to be for Hakoah as Amaury Gauthier’s spot kick was saved.
