KICKOFF 2021 - ROUND 14

SATURDAY UNITED 29TH MAY SPORTS CENTRE 7PM MEN’S CLUB WELCOME

Welcome to Sydney United Sports Centre for Round 14 of the NSW men’s competition between Northbridge Bulls and Sydney FC. Last round we put forward a strong performance against the league leaders Blacktown City and were unlucky not to get the three points. I am very proud of the boys and the way in which they played the game with very positive and forward thinking. I believe we deserved more from the game but credit to Blacktown City, it shows why they are at the top of the ladder. Looking towards tonight’s fixture against Sydney FC, we expect a difficult game as it is like a mini derby which means anything is possible. We push Good luck to both teams and we hope you enjoy the for the three points like always and hope to have a match. few more players back from injury to strengthen our GO THE BULLS! squad.
