Blue skies as Olympic evades sharks

THE scoreline may have not reflected how the match unfolded but defending NPL NSW Men’s Premiers, Sydney Olympic, proved too clinical for a slick Sutherland Sharks outfit winning the opening round 3-0 on a hot summer’s day at the Belmore Sports Ground.

Sutherland was left to rue missed chances in this fixture despite creating a multitude of chances, while Olympic were deadly in the conversion of their opportunities.
Goals from Nick Fitzgerald, Roy O’Donovan and Oli Pufflet all but gave Labinot Haliti a winning start to his coaching regime at the Blues.
