Club Information
The Professor
The first round of the Chatham Cup is coming up next week. Were away to Wainuiomata in what local pundit, Dale Warburton (of Yellow Fever), is describing as the Double Brown Derby. One
former Vic player suggested the team stop off at KFC on the way to the game to make it a Double
Down Double Brown Derby.
Anyhoo, with the delight of knockout football returning, what better way to start than by looking
back at a match report found in the archives of Salient magazine (when they actually reported on
stuff), summarising a close run match between Vic , then a lowly urban club, playing Central
League powerhouse Western Suburbs.
P.S. Apologies for the continual references to Soccer throughout this articlethat was how they talked in the 1960s.
Victoria University v Western Suburbs, 22 June 1968
VIC'S SOCCER JOLT FOR SUBURBS Vic's recent effort of almost putting Western Sub-urbs out of this year's Chatham Cup must rate as one of the best-ever performances by a university soccer side. Unbeaten At the time Western Suburbs were unbeaten in the Central League Competition and were ex-pected to have a comfortable match against Var-sity, who do not play Central League and are not high up in the Wellington competition. But from the whistle Vic showed they were not overawed by the opposition and settled down to play intelligent football against a team who had obviously underrated their opponents. Shock The first shock came when Chris Ryan nodded a magnificent header past the Suburbs 'keeper. Vigorous defending by Vic proved highly effective and at half-time they still held a slender lead. The Suburbs' forwards were having difficulty fin-ishing off and, in an effort to inject some fire into the attack, player/coach Imre Kiss, recovering from a leg injury, returned for the second half. Wilted During this half Vic continued to play stirring football, repulsing attack after attack. Finally, with only 10 minutes play remaining, Dave Wal-lace netted for Suburbs. The game ended at one-all. But the varsity side wilted a little in extra time and allowed Suburbs to score two more goals.
After 120 minutes of football the final score was 3-1 to Western Suburbs. Brilliant Varsity 'keeper Rod Bustard was hero of the match. He played brilliantly and repeatedly stopped certain goals. It is hoped that with this brilliant display he will receive some of the recognition due to him for several seasons. The rest of the team all played well and they can be satisfied that their performance caused one of the biggest stirs in Chatham Cup football for many seasons. Notes: Imre Kiss was a Hungarian-born player who represented NZ in one international. Dave Wallace was a current All White at the time of this game and became the first New Zealand-born player to captain the national team. In 1968 Western Suburbs went on to win the first ever Central League title, and won it again in 1969. These feats saw them be an inaugural member of the National League that started in 1970, and fin-ished runners-up in the Chatham Cup. All of that success pails in comparison to the scare they received at the hands of Victoria...

Mens First Team Match Report
Capital Premier League Match Report: Victo-
ria University 5-0 (3-0) Wellington Olympic
Reserves
Wakefield Park 2 (3.30pm kick-off)
Saturday April 25, 2015
Victoria University resoundingly rebounded from last weeks first defeat of the league season to Island Bay United by progressively netting five goals and keeping a clean sheet away to Wellington Olympic Reserves.
University enjoyed most of the early possession
with the first close attempt coming when central-midfielder Miles Lloyd delivered from the right but left-midfielder Michael Lahood could only connect with his shoulder under pressure and the Olympic keeper gath-ered. Olympic then asked questions, with University
keeper Matt Walker dealing well with a right-wing through-ball, two other attacks threatening and a shot going over the University crossbar from a left-wing move. A quick turn on about halfway from University striker Seb Ninness released right-midfielder Ben McLean who earned a corner and Lahood followed up
with a threatening place-kick. University central-defender Sam McLaughlin sty-mied an Olympic left-wing break with a timely out-stretched leg, the visitors came close to breaking the Olympic line with repeated through balls, before the home side launched a promising right-wing attack
which led to a corner that central-defender Si Davies headed clear. Seizing on a header back into the Olympic box by Lloyd, University striker Yannik Wouts struck the bar on the turn, before the visitors opened the scoring on 25 minutes. Aided by Wouts movement, Ninness beat an opponent and advanced into the left side of the
Olympic penalty area before passing the ball around
the keeper and into the far corner. As the game heated up in tempo and aggression, Walker gathered a cross from the right, University left-back Finn Stenner Corbishley shot on target from dis-tance, Walker was drawn outside his area but the Uni-versity defence covered, and then Stenner Corbishley
and Davies cleared their lines. A throw-in from Universitys left wing was worked across the park to present right-back Andrew Staples with a shooting opportunity, Lloyd shot wide after build up play from Wouts and McLean, and then Ninness was denied by an outstretched boot in a one-on-one
with the Olympic keeper. Arriving on a cut-back from Wouts, Ninness drew
another firm save, Olympic threatened at the other end of the park through a free-kick that ultimately found its way to Walker, before University extended its lead on 42 minutes. A quickly-taken free-kick on the left side of halfway by University central-midfielder
Mike Garnett found Staples whose drilled ball in behind the retreating defence was tapped home by Ninness. Stenner Corbishley and Lahood were called into action to partially clear a right-wing Olympic free-kick with Walker ultimately cleaning up, before University made it 3-0. Following a breakaway and shot by Nin-ness, the ball rebounded up from the Olympic keeper,
Wouts leaped to nod towards the right-hand corner of the goal and Lloyd arrived to slide home. The half closed with University rallying to clear its lines before Lahood was released into the left side of
the Olympic area but was bundled over in the process of shooting. Olympic threatened with a free-kick soon after the break before University regained the ascendancy. Nin-ness attempted an early strike that went over the bar, Wouts miscontrolled in space on the edge of the Olym-pic area after being fed by Ninness, and a Ninness free
-kick from the right was headed over at the far post by
McLean. Staples did well to stomp out an Olympic left-wing attack but was then grateful to Walker as he instantly returned possession, Wouts was just beaten to the ball by the Olympic keeper on a promising break, and a
Lahood cross was just taken away from Staples arriv-ing on the far post. Garnett and Lahood combined to set up Ninness for a strike that was saved around the right-hand upright and the resulting Lahood corner found its way to Da-vies who was stymied in his efforts to create a shoot-ing opportunity in tight space.
Davies then slid to block out an Olympic cross at the other end of the park and from the resulting corner
a shot rained over the University bar, Wouts was freed into a one-on-one but shot just right of target, and Walker needed to be quick to clear an Olympic attack. Lahood shot just past the right-hand upright, McLean attempted to keep his close-range shot down
but the ball reared up and struck the bar, Garnett de-livered a threatening free-kick from the left which just evaded arriving team-mates before University made it 4-0 on 68 minutes. Staples steadied on approach to the right-hand corner of the area before curling an early ball for Lahood to finish at the far post.
Olympic put in a threatening cross from the left which went right through a crowded University box and then put a header wide at the far post, before Uni-
versity threatened again through a Lahood corner and soon after completed the scoring on 75 minutes. Hav-ing been upended in the Olympic area, Wouts stepped
up to make it 5-0 from the penalty spot.
The home side made a late rally with balls into the University area being cleared by Stenner Corbishley (twice) as well as substitutes Matt Ryan and Dave Hudson, before Ninness struck a long free-kick on the Olympic goal.
Walker saved as Olympic broke into the right side of the box and soon after a shot went over the Univer-sity bar, before at the other end of the park Ninness was thwarted in a one-on-one after being played in by
Lloyd with the ball being quickly returned by Wouts but Ninness then being blocked out in the six-yard ar-ea.
Striving for his hatrick, Ninness appeared to slip on the ball after being played into a promising position by Wouts, Davies repelled an Olympic attack, Wouts shot wide after being played in by Garnett and the game drew to a close with Davies setting up Hudson for a strike.
Coachs comments: A very impressive response from the lads to last weeks disappointment. Albeit, little

The season is well underway now and already some teams are proving just how competitive they will be. The Mens Thirds lead Capital 3, while the Accies (our fourth team) have a perfect record of four wins from four. This weekend also sees the first intra-club derby of the season as the Uni Cycles and Unicorns meet each other. In the womens grades, the Firsts visit league leaders Petone, out at Petone Memorial on Sun-day for a vital clash to set the scene for the rest of the season.
seemed that different other than us being more clinical in our delivery and execution.
I was also very impressed with our discipline in the first half particularly when things threatened to kick off.
As noted in the after-match, there were strong per-formances throughout the side, with the defence keep-ing a clean sheet, Stapes providing a couple of assists, Lloyd being heavily involved in the midfield battle and of course Seb netting twice and playing a big part in many of our attacking movements. However, Yannik was again named man-of-the-
match for his non-stop work rate -- gaining repeated praise from our supporters on the sideline -- and also for his personal courage. Despite not having the great-
est day in front of goal, he showed unblemished confi-dence and commitment to continue taking on chances
right through to the final whistle -- a fantastic example mate.
