Jets vs Fire (Andrew Shaw)

Riley Campbell's four goals helped Moreton Bay United to a dominant 7-1 win over Sunshine Coast in a rescheduled match at Wolter Park Tuesday night.

Campbell's array of goals was complemented by tireless work from midfielders Stephen Green and Donggyu Lee. 

Jets remain in fifth place in what has become a four-horse race for the final two Finals spots. 

Fire were down just one goal going into the second half but conceded two in quick succession after the restart. 

Jets will look to move ahead of fourth-placed Western Pride with an away match against SWQ Thunder on Saturday, while Fire play FNQ Heat on Sunday at home.

Key Moments:

6': GOAL JETS - Riley Campbell collects the ball on halfway, outpaces two defenders, cuts back inside and chips it over the keeper from 15 yards. 

15’: GOAL JETS – Campbell has time and space to fire a goal into the far corner from 15 yards. 

16’: GOAL SUNSHINE COAST – Matt Byrne turns in a cross past goalkeeper Jordan Thurtell, who has come out leaving the net unguarded.

46’: GOAL JETS – Campbell outpaces his marker and scores high from a tight angle to complete his hat-trick.

49’: GOAL JETS – Donggyu Lee works his way to the byline on the Jets’ right and pulls it back for Campbell, unmarked six yards out, to score.

59’: GOAL JETS – Green makes amends by collecting a long cross from Corey Lucas and firing a first-time low shot into the far corner from eight yards.

73’: GOAL JETS – Captain Alex Janovsky is unmarked as he casually flicks home a corner from Lee.

86’: GOAL JETS – Cameron Millar chases Jheison Macuace’s lob over the defence, beats the keeper to the bouncing ball and bundles it in.
