APIA Leichhardt Tigers FC 1 - Blacktown City FC 0 at Lambert Park A Tasuku Sekiya strike on the cusp of halftime has given APIA Leichhardt Tigers a hard fought 1-0 win during their PlayStation®4 National Premier Leagues NSW Men’s clash with Blacktown City at Lambert Park on Sunday. The result was Blacktown’s first loss of the season with APIA bouncing back from a 4-2 loss last round to secure the morale boosting win. It was a notable APIA debut for former Hyundai A-League journeyman Ivan Necevski who made a number of key saves for his new side. Blacktown remains in top spot despite the loss, but holds only a two-point lead from second placed Sydney United 58 and third placed APIA.
Sydney United 58 FC 2 - Manly United FC 1 at Sydney United Sports Centre Goals from Panny Nikas and Matt Sim on either side of half time has helped Sydney United 58 edge Manly United 2-1 in a tight PlayStation®4 National Premier Leagues NSW Men’s contest at Sydney United Sports Centre. The Reds broke the deadlock on the cusp of half time via a deflected free kick from Nikas and doubled their advantage 43 seconds into the second half when Matt Sim fired a rocket past Dylan Mitchell to set up an unassailable 2-0 lead Leigh Egger netted a consolation deep into injury time after heading home Sam Wilson’s corner as United 58 conceded for the first time in 450 minutes of football. However, Egger’s goal wasn’t enough to halt a seventh straight win in all competitions for Mark Rudan’s men.

hird-place will host second-place when TBlacktown City entertain Sydney United 58 at Lilys Football Centre on Sunday afternoon. With only a single goal conceded separating the two sides, who are equal on 19 points each on the competition ladder, it will likely be a tight contest in Seven Hills as both teams look to maintain pace with Sutherland Sharks. Blacktown City dropped down into third courtesy of a 2-0 defeat to APIA Leichhardt Tigers and will be out to avoid consecutive defeats while Sydney United 58 are beginning to build a serious championship assault having accounted for Manly United 3-1 in last week’s Match of the Round.
