Bayswater City advanced to the PlayStation 4 National Premier Leagues Grand Final with a stunning 6-0 win over Olympia FC at Frank Drago Reserve on Sunday.

The PlayStation 4 NPL Western Australia club cruised to victory on the back of a hat-trick from David Heagney, brace from Borbor Sam and Gustavo Giron Marulanda.

The result will now see Bayswater host PlayStation 4 NPL New South Wales side Blacktown City in the Grand Final next weekend.

The home started brightly against their Tasmanian opposition - skipper Trent Kay headed over when unmarked early, while Olympia threatened on 10 minutes but Warren Wadawu’s shot on the turn failed to find the target.

Bayswater showed them how to do on 13 minutes when they took the lead.  Former Perth Glory Youth winger Sam raced past Harry Woolley and crossed to Heagney, who made no mistake from close-range.

The goal seemed to lift Olympia and Luke Eyles shot straight at Devon Spence before Lachlan Nichols’ curling shot from the edge of the penalty area whistled just past the post.

But on 28 minutes Bayswater doubled their advantage. A ball over the top from Brian Farrell sent Marulanda clear and the Columbian striker finished with aplomb past Sean Lewis.

Olympia were struggling in the final third as Bayswater continued to threaten and Sam saw a shot flash inches wide, before Heagney tested Lewis late but the Olympia custodian saved low.

It was more of the same after the break as Bayswater dictated terms and they increased their lead on 64 minutes, Heagney racing clear and finished clinically.

Bayswater were showing no signs of abating and they added a fourth on 73 minutes, with Sam cutting in from the left and firing low past Lewis.

Olympia were wilting and Bayswater added their fifth moments later, with Heagney finishing to complete his hat-trick.

The result was iced with three minutes remaining, with Sam capping off an outstanding performance drifting in from the left and firing low past Lewis.
