MURDOCH University Melville is celebrating an NPLW league title and an Hot-stepping to a title extraordinary goal to cap a season of dreams. MUM had already wrapped up the league title heading into the final game and Katarina Jukic put the icing on the cake with an incredible late strike against Fremantle City. Jukic’s team was trailing 1-0 at half time in the local derby after Fremantle skipper Mikayla Lyons’ first half penalty. With just over 10 minutes to play, Jukic produced a jaw-dropping ‘rabona’ on the edge of the area which chipped ’keeper Dayle Schroeder and dropped in just under the crossbar. Dorrien Gardens will host the end-of-season top-four cup finals this weekend.
