Azzurri Too Strong at Cockburn

Cockburn City played host to Perth SC on what was a fabulous warm, sunny and cloudless May Saturday afternoon at Dalmatinac Park. There was a rather healthy crowd to watch this National Premier Leagues WA game but unfortunately the result was not to go the home sides way. Despite the result Cockburn City were huffing and puffing and just could not blow the Perth SC house down with many chances going begging. The unrelenting pressure they were applying onto the Perth defence was immense but, in true Perth SC style only needed to counter and take one bite at the cherry to slot the ball in the back of the net.
The game was 2-0 in favour of the visitors at the break but really there should have been more on the board, especially next to the home side. The match resumed and was effectively the same style of play, however Perth were not going to succumb to Cockburn and in the 57th minute took yet another chance to further extend their lead to three. A Cockburn goal finally arrived in the 84th minute but it just wasn't enough as they were trying to score a second in what was a rather energetic last 8 minutes to the match. The match finished 3-1 in favour of Perth SC.

The food at Dalmatinac is always a good standard and would encourage any football fan or local in the area to head down to Dalmatinac to sink your teeth into some delicious Cockburn burgers. The canteen staff put on a good show and for 6 dollars was delicious from start to finish. Thought cucumber was a nice touch to add a different dimension to a sporting favourite. Drinks at Dalmatinac are of good value, better than any pub so get down to the club and have beers on the 5 mark which was a Carlton draught and premixed spirits were 8 dollars. The chips were fantastic and were hot and crunchy to boot at 4 dollars id get on that while watching some good football. As always thank you Cockburn for the hospitality and shame the game didn't go your way.
