Adelaide City have continued their Cup success after claiming the inaugural Football Federation SA (FFSA) Charity Cup this evening at Adelaide Shores Football Centre.
The black and whites defeated 2014 South Australian Champions Croydon Kings 2-1 in front of a crowd of 870 in regular time.
Kings Mohammd Kamara opened up the scoring in the second half of the match however City’s Captain Matthew Halliday responded shortly after, following a slick pass from Nicholas Bucco.
Michael Mullen who joined Adelaide City this season from Para Hills Knights was the second to score for the side, giving them the win over Croydon.
The FFSA Charity Cup followed the curtain raiser match between West Adelaide and Victorian side South Melbourne.
