Bunyip and Drouin suffer losses

-

Bunyip and Drouin suffered losses in round two of division five state league south division.

The Strikers proved no match for experience­d side Dandenong White Star, suffering an 8-1 loss.

The White Star simply had too much firepower for the Strikers, with D Heerah scoring three goals and J Worbel a brace.

Four other single goal scorers added to the Strikers’ pain, who could only manage a consolatio­n goal.

The Reserves were more competitiv­e, going down 2-1.

The White Star scored the first goal of the game, but Bunyip were able to push back and send the match down to the wire.

Drouin were competitiv­e in their senior match with Endeavour Hills Fire.

The F ire were first to score but the Dragons responded, only just unable to force an equaliser as they went down 3-2.

Aided by some ill discipline that saw two opponents yellow carded, the Drouin Reserves won 1-0 to collect the points.

The Dragons senior team sits sixth on the ladder, with the Strikers languishin­g at the bottom and looking to respond.

Meanwhile, Warragul United completed a 10 victory over Caulfield United Cobras.

Warragul scored in the first half, with the Cobras unable to equalise.

It kept Warragul’s unbeaten start to the season alive, with United in second-place behind the Manningham United Blues.

Caulfield got the better of Warragul in the Reserves, winning 4-1.
