4-0 to the Mariners. (5-2 on aggregate)

Donatien Niyonkuru is tripped inside the Bulls penalty box area by Oliver Jones making Kurt Ams give a penalty kick award to the Mariners for the second time tonight. Nicolas Durate stepped up for the penalty kick as he kicked it, Alex Robinson did dive the right way but the ball managed to get passed Robinson.

Still nil all between Nepean FC and Mounties Wanderers at Wanderers Football Park as they almost reach the end to the first half.

FT: Mariners 4 - Bulls Academy 0 (Mariners win 5-2 on aggregate)

A total of 195 minutes played and yet they still are deadlock at 0-0

Second half of extra time about to start.

[MathyouWSW]

It's come down to penalties.

[MathyouWSW]

Mounties Wanderers will in be in League One next season 

They won the penalty shootout 4 goals to 3.

Nepean FC are relegated.

Macarthur Rams womens win the NPL NSW women's first grade.

4-2 in penalties. 

Rockdale vs Marconi are up next. 

[MathyouWSW]

HT: Rockdale 0 - Marconi 1 

The goal coming from James Temelkovski into the 45th minute as Franco Maya got a cross to him and Temelkovski headers the ball into the back of the net.

Goal. Marconi 

Domenic Constanza takes a shot at goal which Nicholas Sorras is able to stop. However, he couldn't contain the ball. Blake Riccuto and James Temelkovski were contesting for the ball with Temelkovski does a back pass while on the ground and that allows Marko Jesic to score for Marconi. 

Rockdale 0 - Marconi 2 83rd minute.

I would say that could seal it for Marconi.

[MathyouWSW]

Goal Marconi.

A pass to Milislav Popovic sees break away with having a 1 on 1 opportunity against Nicolas Sorras with Popovic scoring and definitely sealing victory for Marconi

Rockdale 0 - Marconi 3 92th minute.

[MathyouWSW]

FT: Rockdale 0 - Marconi 3

That gives Marconi their 4th NSW NPL First Grade Championship.

and that concludes the NPL season! Bag it and tag it!

And they were beaten by a nameless opposition?!

[SBW]

They were beaten by another Greek NPL team where Panta came from

Speaking of Panta, 2 or 3 years ago, he played in the same Grand Final against SMFC from Oakleigh and he was their MOTM
