Olympic v Glory

Round 14 report by Louise Brooks
Sydney Olympic v Perth Glory


Hi, Just back from Belmore couldn't got to spirit this week due to work so decided to go to this clash.

Crowd 8000+ largest or round. Good considering cricket test was on

The game was quite frustrating lots of missed opportunities by both teams.

Interesting refereeing! Matthew Breen missed a penalty for Olympic or decided not to give it. This stirred up the crowd.Also missed a hand ball incident No doubt he received a police escort as had bottles pegged at him on leaving the field of play. Thought Cardoza and Emmerton played well for Olympic and liked the look of Despotovski for Glory and thought the glory goal keeper did well. Looking forward to seeing Glory again in 2 weeks at NSO

Saw an interesting ad at Olympic advertising supporters tour for their games on 26th(South Melbourne) and 28th(Carlton). Cost $300 including 4 nights accommodation and return coach travel. Think it is a good initiative by Soc Oz in the draw to have two away games in the same city much better for supporters be good to see more of this.
