💔 **SO CLOSE. SO MUCH TO BE PROUD OF.**

What a fight from the St George City U18s.

In Sunday afternoon’s semi-final against Northern Tigers at **Marconi Synthetic Fields**, City produced an incredible performance that came within minutes of sending them through to the final.

City started brilliantly, racing to a **2–0 lead after just 20 minutes**. Then came the setback — a second yellow reduced City to 10 men.

But rather than fold, City responded.

Still dominating the game, City extended their lead to **3–0** and were unlucky not to be further ahead.

A late first-half goal from Tigers after City were unable to clear a free kick made it **3–1 at half-time**.

The second half became a remarkable test of character. Despite being a player down, City continued to manage the game and hold their advantage.

But eventually, the fatigue began to tell.

Tigers scored their second, then found the equaliser in the dying minutes of normal time to force extra time.

With City severely fatigued after playing more than 100 minutes with 10 men, the players continued to dig deep and fight for every ball.

Sadly, Tigers found the winner in the final couple of minutes of extra time.

**St George City 3–4 Northern Tigers AET**

The result will hurt. But what this team showed deserves enormous respect.

To take a 3–0 lead, lose a player, withstand wave after wave of pressure and still come within minutes of reaching a grand final is something this group should be incredibly proud of.

The club certainly is.

**Heads high, City. ❤️

A tough afternoon for Dolls Point FC, going down 4-2 to Sans Souci in the Football St George Premier League Reserves Grand Final at Penshurst Park.

The Battle of the Peninsula is one of Football St George's great rivalries, dating back to the formation of Dolls Point FC following its breakaway from Sans Souci. Once again, the two clubs produced a fiercely contested encounter, with plenty of intensity and passion from the opening whistle.

Despite a spirited effort, Sans Souci proved too strong on the day to claim the championship. While the result wasn't the one the Dolls were chasing, reaching the Grand Final capped another outstanding campaign and is a credit to the players, coaches and everyone involved with the club throughout the season.

Congratulations to Sans Souci on the victory, and congratulations to the Dolls Point FC Premier League Reserves on a season to be proud of.

Champions! 🏆

Dolls Point FC has secured back-to-back Football St George Premier League Grand Final titles after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Minor Premiers Arncliffe Aurora at Penshurst Park.

In front of a passionate crowd estimated at around 3,000 spectators, the competition's two best sides produced a Grand Final worthy of the occasion. Every challenge was fiercely contested as both teams played at a relentless tempo, refusing to give an inch.

Arncliffe thought they had found the net twice, but both goals were ruled out – one for offside and the other for a foul on the goalkeeper. With the match hanging in the balance, the decisive moment arrived in the 76th minute when Dolls converted a free kick from just outside the penalty area, sparking wild celebrations among the blue and light blue faithful.

Going back-to-back is no easy feat, and this latest championship is a testament to the quality, resilience and character of the players, coaches and everyone involved with the club. Congratulations to all on another unforgettable season and a deserved Premier League Grand Final triumph.

Grand Final Bound! 🧡🏆

Football can be a cruel game... until it isn't.

Lugarno FC are through to the Grand Final after an extraordinary 2-1 Preliminary Final victory over Forest Rangers.

It was a gripping contest from the opening whistle, with both sides creating chances in a tense first half. Lugarno had the golden opportunity to take the lead from the penalty spot, only to see the ball cannon off the crossbar.

Forest Rangers, in dark green, struck early in the second half and defended their slender advantage with everything they had. Both goalkeepers produced outstanding saves as the match ebbed and flowed, while desperate defending at both ends kept the contest alive.

With just three minutes remaining, Lugarno, in their famous orange, finally found the equaliser. Then, just two minutes later, they completed an incredible comeback with the winning goal to spark wild celebrations and book their place in the Grand Final.

A remarkable display of determination, resilience and belief. One more game. One more opportunity. Good luck in the Grand Final, ladies! 🧡🏆

📸 Football St George Over 35s | Semi Final

Another Grand Final awaits for Dolls Point FC after a commanding 7-2 Semi Final victory over long-time rivals All Saints Oatley West at Memorial Playing Fields.

These two clubs have shared the Football St George Over 35s competition honours over the past five years, making this one of the competition's great rivalries. While their encounters are usually decided by the finest of margins, Dolls produced a clinical performance to record a rare blowout victory and book their place in the Grand Final.

Returning to Memorial Playing Fields, the club's home for 25 years, made the occasion even more special as Dolls now enjoys a well-earned break before returning in a couple of weeks to contest the Grand Final.
