Evan Kunavelis scores
The Belgrade football players from Adelaide have already taken the top of the table of the First State League of South Australia, where they intend to stay until the end of the race. They have a long way to go, but the start of the season is promising. They also recorded a 3-0 victory in the second round, and the strength of the Woodville team is now felt by the players of Adelaide Hills.
The match at Frank Mitchell Park in Woodville was decided in the space of 18 minutes of the game, but it took the players of the oldest Serbian club in Australia almost half the time to unlock the lock of the defensive guests. The persistent attacks paid off in the 42nd minute, when the experienced rookie Evan Kunavelis caught a volley and transferred the running goalkeeper Hudson.
Kyle Markham, another reinforcement of Belgrade this year, who arrived from Adelaide Hills, scored the assist for the leading goal. Markam had no mercy on his former teammates, as he crowned the solo penetration of Antonio Natsiopoulos in the 49th minute and sent the ball into the net for 2: 0 from close range. It was a kind of punishment for the guests for a somewhat uncontrolled offensive at the beginning of the second part of the game.
The Hills players then had two chances, but both times they shot next to the goal. The punishment followed expeditiously. A long ball from the middle of Belgrade came to the wing position to Stefan Simić, whose center shot the guests failed to clear, and Kyle Markham did not miss the chance and achieved the final result. It was his third goal in two games in the Woodville team jersey.
The football players of Belgrade can regret that they did not score more goals for the guests because they had a handful of opportunities for that, and every chance was accompanied by loud support from the stands. Judging by the first two rounds, the fans of the Serbian team will have something to look forward to this season as well.
Coach Mori brought the following team to the field: Jokic, Voltaire, Leo (R. Ljujic 75 ‘), Cummins, Phelps (Bezbradica 83’), Nujaim, Simic (D. Ljujic 83 ‘), Markam, Kunavelis, Natsiopoulos, Padler.
In the 3rd round, Belgrade is the guest of Playford City. The match will be played on Saturday, May 1, at 3:00 PM on the Ramzi Park field.
Cup against amateurs on Saturday
This Saturday, the football players of Belgrade will play in the second round of the FFA Cup on the territory of South Australia. The rival of the Serbian club is the amateur Pembroke Old Scholars, who should not be more than a decent sparring partner. The match will be played on the field in Woodville, on Tuesday, April 24, starting at 2:30 p.m.
Reserves gambled advantage
In the duel between the reserve teams of Belgrade and Adelaide Hills, it was 3: 2 for the guests. The Belgrade reservists led in the first half with 2: 1 (Bezbradica’s goal and the guests’ own goal), but in the continuation they managed to gamble the advantage and record the second defeat of the season.
The young team of Belgrade under 18 won with 2: 1 (1: 0). Goals for Belgrade were scored by Malivindi and Tatmihalis.
