South Melbourne FC qualify for first Grand Final in six years

·

South Melbourne FC have qualified for their first 2022 National Premier’s League Victoria Grand Final since 2016.

South Melbourne are into their first Grand Final in six years after defeating Green Gully SC in a semi-final match at Melbourne’s Lakeside Stadium on Sunday.

The 1-0 score came after South Melbourne’s Alun Webb put the Club ahead with an outside of the foot long ranger in the 56th minute of the match.

South Melbourne will now face Oakleigh Cannons FC in the final at Olympic Village on Sunday, September 1 at 6.30pm.

The grand final match comes after the Club secured the NPL Victoria Men’s Premiership in August with a sensational 1-0 defeat of Dandenong City SC.

South Melbourne is one of three Greek-owned football clubs across Australia to win an NPL Premiership this year.
