OLYMPIC TO MEET VALENTINE-PHOENIX IN NBN STATE LEAGUE DECIDER

In NBN State League football, Hamilton will face Valentine-Phoenix in next weekend’s grand final, after completing a semi-final series win over Edgeworth.

Olympic held a three nil advantage following the first leg, so the Eagles had to put their bodies on the line.

When Olympic’s Chris Berlin was brought down in the box, player of the year John Majurovski had the chance to draw first blood, but Edgeworth keeper Ben Smith was equal to the task.

Then in first half stoppage time, Hamilton gave the Eagles a mountain to climb, with Peter Juchniewicz finding the back of the net.
