South Melbourne FC won through to the 2015 Dockerty Cup final thanks to a thrilling come from behind derby victory over Heidelberg United at Jack Edwards Reserve on Wednesday night.

After conceding a goal in the first half, a late Nick Epifano brace saw South triumph 2-1 against their old rivals and send the strong contingent of travelling supporters into raptures at the final whistle.

The win was South’s first over Heidelberg this season and sends the blue and white into their first Dockerty Cup final since Frank Arok’s South Melbourne side played in the 1995 edition and defeated the Melbourne Knights 3-1 at Olympic Park on Sunday 1 October 1995.

South started the match well and created chances from the outset. Milos Lujic missed a glorious opportunity to score just after the half hour when he got on the end of Tim Mala’s perfect cross but headed the ball over Griffin McMaster’s crossbar.

Heidelberg capitalised by opening the scoring a few minutes later. Kaine Sheppard found the back of the net, like he did when the two teams met at the Olympic Village earlier this year.

Chris Taylor’s men continued to create chances after the restart. Lujic and Jake Barker-Daish both had efforts saved by McMaster, while up the other end, Nikola Roganovic made a courageous diving save to prevent a certain Heidelberg goal. The Bergers almost killed the game off when Dan Heffernan cut inside from the left but fired the ball over Roganovic’s crossbar.

There always looked to be another goal in the game and it came after 78 minutes through Epifano. Mala’s cross fell to the speedy winger at the back post and he lashed it home from close range to level the scores.

Less than ten minutes later, South had a penalty when Lujic was hauled down in the box by Steven Pace. The veteran Bergers defender was given his marching orders for being the last man, before Epifano coolly sent McMaster the wrong way from the spot kick for his sixth goal in four Cup matches in 2015.

The back four, led by the superb Roganovic, saw out the final few minutes to seal the win.

Taylor was delighted with his side’s never say die attitude. “We made hard work of it. Going behind, it was typical of what we’ve been doing the past four of five weeks, making it hard for ourselves.”

“It shows a lot of character to come back after a goal down, given recent results.  A lot of sides could have thrown in the towel. Like our supporters sing, we fight until the end.”

South plays against the winner of the other semi final between Hume City and Oakleigh Cannons, which will be played at the Olympic Village tonight. The Dockerty Cup final will be played on Sunday 2 August at Lakeside Stadium.

South Melbourne FC has also established a relationship with Real Madrid, of which full details will be released at a later date.

Due to the Club’s support of this wonderful football tournament, the Victorian Government has given the Club a number of complimentary tickets for distribution to its membership base.

Any 2015 SMFC member wishing to get a single complimentary ticket can do so by visiting the offices of SMFC President Leo Athanasakis at K&A Accountants at Level 1, 75 Blyth Street Brunswick.

South Melbourne FC face Heidelberg United in a mouth-watering Dockerty Cup semi-final derby at Jack Edwards Reserve tonight.

Heidelberg defeated South in the League recently on Friday 3 July and Chris Taylor’s side will be out to avenge that loss by knocking their oldest rival out of contention for an early piece of silverware.

It has been a difficult month of football for a South side hit with a combination of injuries, suspensions and unavailability at the same time as a tough run of fixtures. This has resulted in League losses to Bentleigh (28 June), Heidelberg (3 July) and Melbourne Knights (12 July). Sandwiched in between was an epic 3-2 win against Green Gully (7 July).

Mathew Theodore scored an impressive goal against the Knights last weekend and the diminutive playmaker looms as a key man for South should he play tonight. Chris Irwin has impressed as a makeshift left back over the last few weeks, however he is Cup-tied and cannot play tonight.

Brad Norton has been filling in at the centre of defence for Luke Adams during the big Kiwi’s absence for international duty with New Zealand. With Adams back, the defence can now resume normality, with Norton at left back, Adams and Michael Eagar at centre back and Tim Mala at right back.

Perhaps the most important man on the pitch for South tonight will be striker Milos Lujic, who always seems to find his best right when his team needs it most.

The danger men for Heidelberg are Kaine Sheppard and Dan Heffernan, with the latter scoring two goals to beat South in Heidelberg’s League win at Lakeside Stadium on 3 July.

The winner of tonight’s match plays the winner of the other semi final (between the Oakleigh Cannons and Hume City) in the Dockerty Cup final at Lakeside Stadium on Sunday 2 August. Oakleigh and Hume do battle at the Olympic Village tomorrow night.

The Heidelberg and South Melbourne derby kicks off at 7:30pm at Jack Edwards Reserve tonight and will be decided via extra time or penalties if the match is drawn.

South Melbourne FC will have the opportunity to host and accommodate Real Madrid over the next few weeks as part of their 2015 International Champions Cup tour.

On 11 May 2010, both clubs were honoured at the World Football Gala in London. Real Madrid were crowned the European Club of the Century and South Melbourne were crowned the Oceania Club of the Century. With former legendary players such as Ferenc Puskás, Alfredo Di Stéfano, Zinedine Zidane, Raúl, Iker Casillas and current player Cristiano Ronaldo, coupled with Madrid’s record ten European Cup (UEFA Champions League) victories, it was certainly an honour for South Melbourne to be in the same room with one of the giants of world football on that special night.

Ferenc Puskás (2 November 1927 to 17 November 2006) represented both Real Madrid (as a player) and South Melbourne (as a coach). The Hungarian is rated by many as one of the greatest players in the history of football. He was with Madrid from 1958 to 1966 and in that time won the Spanish First Division Championship (La Liga) in five straight seasons from 1960/61 to 1964/65, as well as the Intercontinental Cup in 1960 and the Spanish Cup in 1961/62. He won three European Cups with Real Madrid (1958/59, 1959/60 and 1965/66) and personally scored an incredible four goals as Madrid beat Eintracht Frankfurt 7-3 in the 1959/60 European Cup final in Glasgow on 18 May 1960.

From October 1989 until June 1992, Puskás coached South Melbourne in the National Soccer League. He oversaw South Melbourne’s first National League Cup triumph on 25 April 1990 (4-1 against Sydney Olympic at Olympic Park), before overseeing South’s dramatic 5-4 penalty shootout victory over Melbourne Croatia in the 1990/91 NSL Grand Final (following a 1-1 draw) for the Club’s second National League Championship. Overall, Puskás managed South in 87 League matches for 46 wins, 17 draws and 24 losses, an overall winning record of 53%.

Over the past few days, SMFC Director and Major Sponsor Andrew Mesourouni (of PlastaMasta Knauf) has been in Madrid with Club Partner Morris Pagniello from the Genova International School of Football. On Sunday, Mr Mesourouni was invited to be a guest of Real Madrid and met current Manager Rafael Benitez as well as President Florentino Perez.

Mr Mesourouni’s trip has allowed South Melbourne FC to build a more formal partnership with Real Madrid, with the Club inviting Real Madrid to enjoy unlimited access to its exclusive areas and resources at Lakeside Stadium during their stay in Melbourne over the next few weeks.

South Melbourne FC would also like to confirm that as part of their newly-formed partnership with Real Madrid, both clubs will shortly be hosting a combined event that commemorates the history of both clubs. This event will also formally welcome Real Madrid to Melbourne and to its partnership with South Melbourne FC.

Speaking to smfc.com.au, Mr Mesourouni was excited about the new partnership. “Firstly, I’d personally like to thank Real Madrid and in particular Mr Benitez and Mr Perez for going out of their way to make me feel welcome at Real Madrid. As we all know, Real Madrid is one of the biggest clubs and brands in world football and to have them open their doors to South Melbourne FC is greatly appreciated.”

“It is quite exciting that as a club, we can return the favour and allow Real Madrid to use our facilities when they are in Melbourne. Building a relationship and partnership with such a huge club like Real Madrid can only be good for us, so we are more than happy to do whatever we can to look after them during their stay in Melbourne.”

“On behalf of South Melbourne FC, I would also like to thank Mr Morris Pagniello of Genova International Soccer Academy for all of his tireless work in assisting us to get to this point. Our relationship with him will also allow for a pathway to be formed, allowing many of our youth players the opportunity to play in Europe if they are good enough. We cannot wait to work with both Real Madrid and Morris over the next few weeks.”

Keep an eye on smfc.com.au and our social media channels for more exciting developments over the next few weeks and months.

South Melbourne FC wishes to inform its members, sponsors and supporters that Football Federation Victoria has confirmed the postponement of the Hume City match that was scheduled to be played at Lakeside Stadium this Sunday 19 July.

Both the Under 20s and Seniors matches will now be played on Wednesday 19 August at Lakeside Stadium.

The Under 20s will kick off at 6:15pm, with the Seniors kicking off at 8:30pm.

Please note that all 2015 SMFC Members will have access to this match by scanning their membership cards at the entrance as per normal.

Both teams had positive results during their mid-week fixtures this week. On Tuesday night, a Milos Lujic goal deep into injury time gave South a 3-2 win against Green Gully at Lakeside Stadium. On Wednesday night, the Knights came from a goal down to level 1-1 with League leaders Bentleigh Greens, before goalkeeper Chris May saved a Bentleigh spot kick in second half injury time.

Chris Taylor’s side are currently in second place on the NPL Victoria ladder, two points behind the leading Bentleigh. The Knights are in outright fourth position on the ladder but will be looking to edge closer to Bentleigh, South and Heidelberg.

The two teams have already met on three occasions across three separate competitions in 2015. In all three matches, the Knights took the lead before South won with late goals. On 13 February, South won the FFV Community Shield 2-1 at Knights Stadium before winning the League meeting at Lakeside Stadium on 11 April by the same scoreline. Most recently on 5 June at Lakeside Stadium, two late goals from Nick Epifano sealed a dramatic 3-1 FFA Cup win against the Knights.

South Melbourne and the Melbourne Knights have enjoyed a long footballing rivalry that began when South Melbourne Hellas played Croatia on 21 April 1962 at Middle Park (a 6-0 win for South). The clubs have played 96 League matches against each other, with South winning 48 games, the Knights 25 and with 23 drawn matches.

Sunday’s derby match kicks off at 3pm at Knights Stadium. For those unable to make the game, it can be followed on the Club’s official Facebook and Twitter with the handles #SMFC and #PS4NPLVIC.

South Melbourne FC will once again be on the World Stage with one of our youth teams competing in the highly regarded Shanghai Youth Tournament over the next 10 days.

The Club has been chosen by the organisers to represent Australia, with squad members from our Under 15, Under 16, Under 18 and Under 20 squads all forming part of the SMFC team that will participate in the tournament.

The tournament brings together teams from a range of countries from right around the globe, with Australia, Cameroon, China, Germany, Russia, Slovakia, Spain and Thailand all represented.

South have been placed into Group C, which places them against a local squad from Shanghai, as well as Russian and German representative sides.

Speaking to smfc.com.au at the airport prior to departing for Shanghai, coach Sasa Kolman was optimistic about the squad’s chances in China.

“It would be a great opportunity for us to see how we are going to go against some big football nations, with some fantastic youth teams from Germany, Russia and Spain all represented in this tournament.

My eyes will be on developing and identifying players from this squad and hope that I can bring them into our Under 20s squad if they aren’t already there as part of this tournament. However it is an experience of a lifetime for these kids”.

The players that are part of the squad which will be representing South Melbourne FC and Australia are Nicky Edwards, Lachlan Beever, Kirk Kyriakopoulos, Gerry Kavadas, Campbell Dovaston, Matthew Zilavec, Panayotis Avramidis, Massimo Pesce, Vincent Zhong, Costa Mesourouni, Charly Layton, Christopher Kaev, Mathiang Week, Archie Sweeney, Nashir Hussainy, Timothy Tselepis and Wishy Laurie.

With our first match on Saturday night Melbourne time, we wish the boys and coach Sasa Kolman all the best for the week ahead.

A winner deep into injury time from Milos Lujic has seen South Melbourne FC triumph 3-2 in an epic mid-week clash against Green Gully at Lakeside Stadium on Tuesday night.

Lujic’s goal, combined with David Stirton’s stunning first half brace, gave South its first win in three outings, following home defeats to Bentleigh and Heidelberg over the past fortnight. The victory moves the defending PlayStation 4 NPL Victoria Champions to just a point behind League leaders Bentleigh.

Stirton opened the scoring after eleven minutes with a smart finish from a sensational team move. He swivelled in the box then hit a well-placed shot past Rani Dowisha for his first League goal since 12 May.

South were wary of the attacking threat posed by the visitors, following Gully producing one of the upsets of the season to defeat the Bentleigh Greens 4-0 last Saturday. Former Oakleigh striker Liam Boland pounced on a cross from Matthew Breeze to put the ball past Nikola Roganovic to level the scores after twenty minutes at Lakeside Stadium.

Stirton restored the home side’s lead just a couple of minutes later with one of the goals of the season. After taking a corner that was cleared straight back to him, Stirton launched a powerful and unexpected strike on the half volley from an acute angle that crossed the line despite Dowisha’s desperate attempts to clear the ball.

Gully levelled the scores early into the second half when Evan Christodoulou raced onto a through ball before striking the ball across Roganovic and into the bottom corner of the net.

The match was an open affair and another goal always looked likely, with Gully appearing the more probable to win the match with dangerous counter-attacking.

With the match into a second minute of second half injury time, Leigh Minopoulos slipped the ball through for Lujic to find the back of the net and send the crowd at Lakeside Stadium into raptures. The goal was no more than Lujic deserved, after the big man had competed ferociously throughout the night. It was his thirteenth League goal in 2015 and his eighteenth goal across all competitions this season.

There were similar dramatic scenes in the Under 20s, as South Melbourne came from 0-3 down to win 4-3 thanks to a last minute winning goal. South’s goal scorers were (in order) Simon Sesay, Giuseppe Marafioti (penalty), Gerry Kavadas and Nashir Hussainy.

South Melbourne FC’s next match is the original Melbourne derby against the Melbourne Knights at Knights Stadium this Sunday 12 July. Kick-off is at 3pm.

SMFC FIX Hellas Beer Man of the Match: David Stirton
Venue: Lakeside Stadium
Date: Tuesday 7 July 2015

South Melbourne FC is aiming to snap a two-game losing streak when it hosts Green Gully in PlayStation 4 NPL Victoria action at Lakeside Stadium tonight.

Chris Taylor’s men have suffered consecutive home losses in the past two weeks, firstly to ladder leaders Bentleigh Greens 0-1 on 28 June and then last Friday night’s 1-2 derby loss against Heidelberg United.

Taylor was forced to field a makeshift starting eleven in South’s two defeats due to injuries, suspensions and the unavailability of a number of players.

Left-back Brad Norton returns to the starting eleven for tonight’s match after serving a one game suspension, whilst midfielder Mathew Theodore will also be available for selection after being substituted in the Bentleigh game following concussion and then missing the Heidelberg match.

Star winger Nick Epifano may miss tonight’s match due to a hamstring issue, whilst centre-half Luke Adams is still away on international duty with New Zealand.

Green Gully is currently in eighth position on the PS4 NPL Victoria ladder and come into tonight’s match in sensational form by having won their last three games. They produced one of the results of the season on Saturday when they smashed League leaders Bentleigh 4-0 and subsequently handed the Greens their first League loss in 2015.

Liam Boland scored a brace against Bentleigh and has impressed since joining from Oakleigh during the mid-season transfer window. Fellow Cannons recruit Evan Christodoulou also got on the scoresheet against Bentleigh and will provide a stern test for South’s central midfielders tonight.

Milos Lujic was one of South’s best in the Heidelberg match last Friday night. He scored a trademark header to take his personal goal-scoring tally to 17 goals across all competitions in 2015. The big striker’s impact will again be vital if South are to take all three points against Green Gully in what is a must-win game tonight.

In the earlier meeting between the two sides this year at Green Gully Reserve on Saturday 4 April, two late goals from Lujic (75’, 90+4’) secured a 0-2 victory for South. In the corresponding meeting last year at Lakeside Stadium on Sunday 6 July 2014, Theodore’s headed goal after 12 minutes secured a 1-0 home win for South.

Tonight’s clash between South Melbourne FC and Green Gully kicks off at 8:15pm at Lakeside Stadium. Those unable to make the match can follow proceedings on the club’s Facebook and Twitter accounts, using the handles #SMFC and #PS4NPLVIC.

Dan Heffernan’s goal in the third minute of second half injury time won Heidelberg United the derby against South Melbourne FC at Lakeside Stadium on Friday night.

Heffernan had also scored in the first half, whilst Milos Lujic got on the scoresheet in a thrilling but ultimately disappointing match for South that ended 1-2 to the visiting Bergers side.

Chris Taylor was forced to name a makeshift back four, with vice captain Brad Norton (suspension) and Luke Adams (international duty) both unavailable. Nick Epifano (hamstring) and Mathew Theodore (concussion) were also unavailable, with Taylor handing starts to Stephen Hatzikostas in midfield and Chris Irwin in the unfamiliar position of left back.

Heffernan’s opening goal arrived after seventeen minutes, when the forward headed Kaine Sheppard’s cross over South goalkeeper Nikola Roganovic and into the back of the net. Heidelberg were the deserved leaders at that point in the game, with Rueben Way and Sheppard going close on several occasions in the first twenty minutes.

In an open half of football, South had several chances to score but lacked a precise final ball. On the stroke of half time, the home side received a free kick on the edge of the area after a foul on David Stirton. Jake Barker-Daish’s well-flighted free kick found Milos Lujic, who scored with a trademark diving header into the bottom right hand corner that gave Bergers keeper Griffin McMaster no chance.

The second half was much the same as the first in terms of an open midfield and end-to-end play that characterised the night.

Andy Kecojevic went agonisingly close from two free kicks in the space of five minutes, with the first one seeing his goal-bound shot saved brilliantly by McMaster, before his second free kick hit the post from a near-identical position.

Heidelberg substitute Kenny Athieu might have thought he had scored after 84 minutes, however Tim Mala dramatically cleared his header off the goal line.

With the match into second half injury time, Heffernan finished off a swift counter-attack move from the Bergers and a depleted South side suffered its second straight defeat at home.

In the Under 20s match, South Melbourne and Heidelberg United played out a 0-0 draw.

South only have a few days to regroup before facing Green Gully at Lakeside Stadium on Tuesday night. Kick-off is scheduled for 8:15pm.
