Fraser Park v Granville Rage

Fraser Park claimed their second win from two, overcoming Granville Rage 3-1 at home to go a clear second in the table. While the performance may not have been as impressive as their second half effort last week, there is no doubt that the three points were well earned.

Kevin Oliviera scored a superb volley from a Danny Wilson cross to put Fraser one goal to the good before a first half sending off to the Rage’s captain Daniel Carrozza, for a studs up challenge on Carlo Musumeci, certainly made things difficult for the away side.

But the Rage did well in equalising with Amir Dizdaric picking up a rebound after a Michael Frost save, before Wilson headed Fraser Park back in front within a couple of minutes, Oliveira reciprocating Wilson’s earlier assist.

Oliveira scored late on with a fine solo run, catching Granville on the counter attack, thundering his shot in via the underside of the post.

“It was a tough, physical affair”, said David Perkovic. “We knew that Granville would want to respond after last week’s heavy loss and with a few ex Granville faces in the Fraser squad, it was always going to be tight”.

“And credit to Granville. They really dug deep after the send off and they certainly gave it their best shot. Some of their free kicks on the edge of the box caused concern especially with their height”.

The six points from six is welcomed at Fraser although Perkovic is not getting carried away.

“We want to try and make Fraser Park a fortress and it is working so far. We realise that both our games have been at home and we have had a bit of an advantage in that sense, and things can change very quickly. Come the second half of the season, we will have three away in a row and that can make a difference”.

“But it is better to be two from two now, and the six points is what we wanted”.

Fraser Park will have the chance to make it three from three when Macarthur Rams come visiting in their re-arranged round one match on Thursday evening.
