2026 Australia Cup final rounds thread

So where is this Sydney FC v SD Raiders game going to be?

Surely they're not playing it at the SFS.

Always a tough way to go out on penalties.

We should have wrapped the game up in 90min, and then 120min. Got ourselves to blame as we were by far the better team after we equalized. No clinical striker #9, and it showed.

re APIA v Sydney united.

Thought APIA were by far the better team in the first half, but Sydney united came back into it second half and probably in the end will feel they could/should have won. Hats off to them for turning it around coz it didn’t seem likely going into half time.

Crowd was announced as around ~2.5k, can’t remember the exact figure but something in that range. Thought in terms of numbers the support was a fairly even split in the stands.

Riot squad were in attendance, full body pat downs upon entry, mobile cctv cameras etc as per the aus championship game between the two clubs but I felt that the policing was maybe slightly less aggressive on this occasion. Segregation was less strictly enforced etc

APIA v Melbourne victory is in my humble opinion perhaps the least intriguing of the combos that those 4 clubs could have thrown up, but still… should be interesting

Overall we were better but didnt take our chances. that's football.

they announced 3,200 over the speakers at the game. You can thank the 2,000 croats that rocked up for that.

It was over policed as the FA deemed the match high risk lol, but there were no incidents to report on

Are these NPL2.

And odds on to be relegated this season....

 

[Monoethnic Social Club]

So this is this seasons biggest cupset then.

In my eyes it is... although Bergers went 1 man down before end of first half and missed a regular time penalty..

Is that a swastika next to the french roundell?

 

[Monoethnic Social Club]

Probably beacuse you can't put drug dealers names on shirts.

What about on the BACK of the shirts?

It is not. It was a little MCF banner, your mates from Melbourne

I heard the commentator say last night that they should check their papers to see if they’re legal and deport anyway. Was not expecting that from paramount. Maybe it’s a directive from the new owner? It was a little over the top

What about on the BACK of the shirts?

I thought they were sponsored by the flower shop in Dandenong market, or is that just Dandenong thunder

 

[Monoethnic Social Club]

And why were they cheering him ffs

Looked like that dumb cunt Kyser Soze from Bergers stole poor Brians water bottle and went to hand it to the Heidelberg bench... The Sunshine bloke went to get it back and got himself a red card in the process... he DID give it back to his keepr though, I would have applauded the bloke as well.. Hope everyone there gave it to the Bergers and their shiftiness last night... grubs.

Quick, send it to the greek FV associates and blame preston

 

[Monoethnic Social Club]

Shouts quarter finals are open. Dates and times to be updated.

Im not even going to bother 0/8 this round... that DRAW option has destroyed me...

 

[Monoethnic Social Club]

Heidelberg are pretty much cooked, 8 games without a win in the league, lose the dockerty cup final and now lose to 2nd bottom in vpl1. Anastasiadis will be signing off in a few weeks imo.

He can be Ange's assistant when we play in the Aleague next season

 

[Monoethnic Social Club]

Great atmosphere tonight and scenes after the shootout, crowd was probably 70-30 NS, and was a very strong crowd considering it's a neutral venue, around 1500 my guess. Heidelberg very poor turnout. Rory Brian what a performance.

Record attendance at CB smith 2500+, keen to see what they get in the quarters

Preston have already announced 12, 545 attendance for next week.

We do pretty well in the cup against the latest "best team outside the Aleague"

 

[Monoethnic Social Club]

Quick, send it to the greek FV associates and blame preston

Nah, don't want to get the "greatest side in Australia" relegated, we still need to make some money off them next season in the NPL, after that... perhaps.

if you dont like it, fuck off.

I was switching between matches last night. I enjoyed the APIA v Sydney Croatia match.

As expected, Preston overcame a spirited Brunswick Juventus.

What is going on at Heidelberg??? Apart from the Round of 32 match against Cumberland United, they have not won a match in nearly 2 months. They should have won last night against North Sunshine Eagles but missed too many opportunities.
