Rangers deliver in tight final

Narellan Rangers reigned supreme at Campbelltown Sports Stadium after a 2-1 victory against Minto Stingers in the M-League first-grade grand final on Friday night.

The top tier of the Macarthur Football ­Association was hotly contested in front of 1500 fans and defence remained tight before Minto finally broke the stalemate with a goal in the 65th minute.

Minto's Scott Watkins and Narellan's Ben Fuller contested a Minto cross in the air, but Watkins won the duel and headered home.

Trailing 1-0 in the second half, Narellan were desperate for the equaliser and found it with 15 minutes remaining through striker Ryan Seton.

Several shots were deflected before Seton grabbed a loose ball in the box and found the back of the net.

With six minutes remaining, Narellan striker Friday Jeremiah took the ball down the right-hand side and beat three Minto defenders, before delivering the ball to Seton to give him his brace.

Rangers held on and earned a 2-1 victory.

Vice-president Steve Holzer said it was a fantastic accomplishment.

"Our whole club was ecstatic with the win and it meant a lot to us, because it's been a 12-month project," he said.

Narellan's Robbie Caldicott received the M-League goalkeeper of the year award.

Macarthur Football Association general manager Glenn Armstrong praised the teams.

"It was an outstanding game of football and the M-League has come a long way in its five years," he said.

In the M-League reserve-grade grand final, Camden Tigers defeated Mt Annan 4-1.
