Sorrento and Cockburn City match abandoned

Report by Ryan Langley

Sorrento and Cockburn City will replay their Round 17 fixture after the match was abandoned in the 25th minute due to unplayable pitch conditions.

The weather was poor before kick-off with steady rain falling. Cockburn, who face Floreat Athena in the Cool Ridge Cup final on July 23, took an early lead after a quick pass from Angel Andres found teammate Aiden De Luz, who fired home.

Sorrento had an opportunity to equalise through Alex Morgan's chip but Cockburn goalkeeper Luke Radonich stood his ground to keep his team in front.

But as the pitch condition deteriorated, referee Michal Jasinski called off the contest.
