A fiercely contested clash between Malvern City and Keon Park ended in a goalless draw, but the match was anything but dull.

Heidelberg United put on a commanding display, dismantling South Springvale in a 5-0 victory. Right from the start, Heidelberg dictated the pace, launching precise attacks that left South Springvale on the back foot.

The win cements Heidelberg’s status as early favourites in the tournament.

East Kew dominated Oakleigh Cannons in a 7-1 victory, demonstrating their attacking firepower. The game was a testament to East Kew’s structured play and efficiency in front of goal. Oakleigh Cannons, despite the scoreline, fought hard and managed to net a goal, showing resilience against a relentless East Kew attack. The win sends a clear message that East Kew is a team to watch this season.

Keon Park made a statement in their Greek Cup debut with a commanding 5-1 victory over Oakleigh Cannons. The early morning heat tested both teams, but Keon Park’s superior possession and finishing made the difference. While Oakleigh Cannons struggled to contain the onslaught, they fought back to score a consolation goal, showing heart despite the defeat.

East Kew secured a narrow 1-0 victory over Malvern City in a game marked by high intensity and disciplined defence. Both teams battled for control, with few clear chances emerging. The decisive goal came in the second half, sealing a hard-earned victory for East Kew. Malvern City pushed for an equalizer but found East Kew’s defence impenetrable.

Box Hill United delivered a historic performance with a staggering 19-0 win over Northcote City. Their relentless attack overwhelmed Northcote’s defence, with goals coming from all angles.
