FFA CUP Update

FFA CUP UPDATE

After a hard fought comeback, Rovers defeated Gymea United 3-1 to progress to the 4th Round of the FFA Cup.

Rovers were down 1-0 at half time after conceding a goal 1 min before half time. Then, as fate would have it, Rovers equalised 1 min before full time to take match into Extra time.

By this stage, Rovers had all the momentum and after a penalty and goal, finshed the game off with a well deserved 3-1 victory.

After the team belted out the team victory song we now look forward to the challenge in the next round. # Magicofthecup
