On Sunday South Melbourne Hellas beat Heidelberg’s Alexander the Great in the first Greek derby of the year. The game was set to be played at Heidelberg United’s home but due to ongoing renovations at the team’s base, the match was set at the Jack Edwards Reserve in Oakleigh.
South Melbourne won the match 1-0 starting off the season on the right foot, however the Yellow and Blacks claim Hellas’ goal scorer committed a foul by pushing their goalkeeper.
Close to two thousand spectators joined to cheer on the teams due to the ease of some COVID-19 restrictions.
