NORTH Coast Football clubs triumphed in the Australia Cup last weekend winning three out of three matches.

The Coffs Coast Tigers walloped Hillvue Rovers FC 12-0 in a night to remember in front of their home crowd at Polwarth Drive last Saturday night.

The Tigers play free-flowing possession football and are looking forward to playing on the smooth playing surface of their home turf this weekend.

“I feel we played very well, the pitch played a huge part, with us being able to roll the ball around without it bumping and bobbling around like previous weeks,” said Tigers goalkeeper Luke Kliendienst.

“Was definitely one of those weeks where everything the boys hit just went in.

“We are looking forward to the next game as it takes us one step closer to the goals we have spoken about and especially being a home game again we are very excited.”

The Tigers take on Northern Inland Premier League champions Oxley Vale Attunga at home in their fourth-round this weekend, kicking off at 5pm on Saturday 4 March at Polwarth Drive.

Northern Storm, Woolgoolga Wolves and the Coffs Coast Tigers all progressed to round four of the national competition scoring a colossal 20 goals in the process.

But it all started sluggishly for the Northern Storm who travelled up to South Armidale and were under the pump going 1-0 down in the first-half.

A second-half comeback ensured a ticket into the fourth round and a mouthwatering fixture against the Woolgoolga Wolves.

The Wolves hosted Lake Cathie who knocked out Sawtell in round two.

In a cagey first half, Woolgoolga edged ahead and led 1-0 at the break.

The Wolves ran rampant in the second half scoring five unanswered goals to sail into round four.
