Balga SC continued their winning run against a tough Morley Windmills team.

Vladimir Naumovski, Balga SC striker was impressed with the Morley team. “Morley was a tough team to beat, they were well structured and played the ball around well” said Naumovski. “I thought they were the better team in the first half, we were just able to convert our chances better on the day”.

Balga took the lead with just 6 minutes on the clock. Balga defender Anton DeFrancesch was well placed to slot the ball into the net from a corner. Nahom Michael extended their lead in the 34th minute with a well taken shot from outside the box. Morley pulled one back just before the half time whistle to stay in the game and put pressure on Balga.

Balga were once again on the scoresheet with the second half only a few minutes old. Hubert Hakizimana extending home side’s lead to 3:1. Morley continued to battle and were rewarded with another goal just 6 minutes later to set up a thrilling finish to the game. Their hopes for an equaliser were dashed on the hour mark, Vladimir Naumovski was fauled just outside the box and expertly finishing the resulting free kick.

 

“Our backline had a very good game” said Naumovski. “They were under pressure for long periods of time and were able to prevent goal scoring opportunities”.

Balga SC travel to Edinburgh Oval to take on Curtin University FC on Saturday 30 April 2016 in round 4 of the Football West All Flags State League Division 2. Curtis University sit third on the ladder with 7 points and remain undefeated from 3 games.

“I’m looking forward to another tough game this weekend against Curtin. They’re unbeaten in the league so far as well so no doubt it will be another tough test for us” said Naumovski. “I have a lot of confidence in our players. There’s a lot of competition for spots at the moment and if we play the football we are capable of, for the better part of the game, we should come away with the points” he continued.
