04.05.08 01:38
The 2007 grand finalist meet for the first time this year at Jensen
Park , but there was a twist in the final result, the tables
have turned on both teams who are languishing at the bottom of the
table. Not a scenario that anyone would have ever contemplated, but
it is true. Bankstown in 10th place and Blacktown in 9th only a
point separating the two.
A glorious day at Jensen with perfect playing conditions of around
21 degrees and a crowd of about 750 people came out to see the
lions revenge the 2007 grand final loss to the demons and they
weren't disappointed.
2 goals in the 3rd and 50th minutes by James Monie and goals
by Makrys and Milevski sealed the 3 points for Bankstown.
In the 3rd minute of the game Monie intercepts a poor clearance by
the Blacktown defense and slots the ball past a stranded Necevski.
A couple of minutes before half time a darting run by Milevski into
the Blacktown box sees him brought down with the referee pointing to
the penalty spot, Makrys stepped up and sent Necevski the wrong way
making it two for Bankstown.
After the half time break with some good lead up work from
Devrimol and Milevski at the edge of the Blacktown penalty box set up Monie, Monie made no mistake slotting
the ball past the out stretched hand of the Blacktown keeper.
in the 50th minute.
Not to be outdone, in the 70th minute Milevski capitalises on a
Blacktown defensive error Milevski found him self on a one on
one with the Blacktown keeper, Milevski made no mistake and slotted Bankstowns 4th of the game.
