Newcastle Jets move into third place on A-League ladder

Newcastle Jets moved into third place on the A-League ladder with a 3-2 win over North Queensland Fury at Energy Australia Stadium this afternoon.

An own-goal by Chris Tadcrosse in the 24^th minute gave Newcastle the lead.

Song Jin-Hyung made it 2-0 for the home side in the 38^th minute.

Two goals by Fury’s Dyron Daal - in the 44^th and 61^st minutes - made it 2-2.

Sasho Petroski then had what looked like a legitimate goal for Newcastle ruled out for off-side, but Petroski, who was making his 100^th A-League appearance, netted the winner in the 83^rd minute, although it looked as if he may have handled the ball in the process.

The goal stood, however, enabling the Jets to record their fourth consecutive A-League win and become the only club to do so this season.

North Queensland Fury are in last place.
