Draws for Cavs, Knights, Saints

It was draws all round in the National Premier League for Green Gully, Melbourne Knights and St Albans on the weekend.

The Cavaliers were on the road on Friday night against Dandenong City.

The two sides entered the match in seventh and eighth with just one point separating them.

Come game day, there wasn’t much between them either with neither side able to hit the scoreboard and had to settle for a 0-0 draw.

Melbourne Knights were also in action on Friday night and produced one of their better performances under new coach John Markovski.

The Knights headed to face Port Melbourne in a bottom of the table clash.

The Knights scored first before Port Melbourne responded before doing it again with Port Melbourne again having the answer.

The game finished in a 2-2 draw.

It was the Knights first draw of the first season, and first point they have claimed since March 30 when they beat St Albans.

The Knights remain on the bottom of the table, two points behind Port Melbourne.

St Albans also had a draw on Saturday after pushing heavyweights Avondale.

Both teams scored early goals to be locked at 1-1 at half time.

Avondale hit the front in the 75th minute and seemed on track for the win.

A Josh Devin goal in the 90th minute brought the scores to 2-2 and was enough for the Saints to walk away with a point.

The Saints sit 12th on the ladder.

Meanwhile in the Victorian Premier League, Caroline Springs George Cross’ winning run came to an end with a 1-0 loss to Brunswick City.

North Sunshine Eagles also suffered a 1-0 loss to Melbourne City.

The Georgies remain in second spot while the Eagles sit in eighth spot.
