South Melbourne to go head-to-head with Oakleigh Cannons in Dockerty Cup final

·

By Bill Roumeliotis

South Melbourne FC secured a 1-0 victory over Hume City at Lakeside Stadium on Tuesday, July 16 and advanced to the Dockerty Cup Final. 

The ‘golden’ goal of the semi-final, scored in the 4th minute by Andy Brennan with a powerful shot from outside the penalty area, proved enough for the ‘Blue and White’ team to secure their final spot. 

After that early goal, Hume City controlled much of the game but failed to create clear scoring opportunities. 

Despite not being satisfied with their performance, South Melbourne held onto its victory and advances to the Cup Final. South Melbourne’s opponent in the Dockerty Cup final on August 3 will be Oakleigh Cannons FC, who defeated Melbourne Srbija 1-0.
