WYOMING
WINS CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS PREMIER LEAGUE FINAL
Wyoming's Premier League team has capped an almost perfect season
by taking out the NSW Champion of Champions title following a hard-fought 2-1
win over Coffs United at Valentine Park in Sydney. The young and skilful Coffs
team was clearly the best opponent that Wyoming had met this season. Like
Wyoming they entered the final with an unbeaten record. Coffs dominated the
game for much of the first half. However Wyoming's defence, as it's done all
season, held out and the Tigers took the lead in the 38th minute when a
pinpoint cross from Daniel Surridge was headed home by a diving Ben
Wallington. The goal stopped the Coffs United momentum and the remainder of
the match was evenly-contested. Coffs equalised in the 58th minute when a free
kick took a deflection off a Wyoming defender and found the net. With the game
into the final 10 minutes two critical pieces of play decided the title. First
was a sensational save from Wyoming goalkeeper Andrew Bull followed in the
85th minute by the decider from a goalmouth scramble put away by defender Paul
Jones.
Wyoming's win makes it the first time in the 40-year history of the Football
NSW Champion of Champions competition that a Central Coast team has taken out
the Premier League competition and leaves the Tigers with the remarkable
record for the 2007 season of 22 wins and 2 draws from 24 matches. The Premier
League squad has now an unprecedented six titles in the 2007 season: First
Grade League Championship, First Grade Premiership, Reserve Grade League
Championship, Reserve Grade Premiership, Premier League Club Champions and now
Champion of Champions.
