Olympia
Warriors booked a semi-final date with South Hobart by downing the visiting
Riverside Olympic 3-1 in their quarterfinal match at Warrior Park on Saturday.
American
import Bay Kurtz opened the scoring for the home side in the 36th
minute. Jack Ryan’s clever back-heel
pass put Kurtz into the box and he managed to shoot past keeper Jarrod Hill before
falling as he was tackled.
Jack
Ryan then weighed in with two goals in 7 minutes just before the break to give
Olympia a commanding 3-0 lead at half-time.
Ryan’s
first in the 39th minute was a neat lob over the keeper, while his
second, in the stoppage time, was a blistering shot from outside the box that
gave Hill no chance.

Riverside
pulled a goal back 13 minutes after the resumption. Sam Davis’s first effort was blocked, but he
netted with his follow-up shot.
It
was the closest the visitors came to extending Olympia, but they did produce a
better performance than their usual league displays.
They
brought on Rhys Kinslow with 20 minutes remaining, but the striker was unable
to change the course of the game.
Jordan
Scott was again the driving force for the Warriors. Everything seems to revolve around him as he
coaxes and urges his team-mates to greater efforts.
