South Melbourne FC crowned Premiers of the NPL Victoria season

·

By Bill Roumeliotis

Without nine key players and with an emergency squad, as nine players from the Under-23 team were called up, South Melbourne FC defeated the in-form St. Albans on Sunday, August 18.

Their win completes a triumph of 26 rounds at the top of the National Premier League Victoria standings with 60 points (19 wins, 3 draws, 4 losses).

During the match, attended by about 500 spectators at Lakeside Stadium, St Albans opened the scoring in the 26th minute with Brian Summerskill.   

South Melbourne equalised in the 30th minute with a goal from Robert Harding, and in the 67th minute, Mac Hilson scored the final goal to make it 2-1. 

After the match, a representative from Football Victoria presented the Dockerty Cup and the 2024 Championship to the South Melbourne players.
