Armadale are top of Group A in the NPLWA - Men's Night Series after they made it two wins from two with a 3-1 victory over Balcatta Etna at Dalmatinac Park.

Ben Hinshelwood's second goal in as many weeks had Balcatta up at the break. But Armadale turned it around after the interval through a Daniel Robinson penalty and further goals from Peter Jacobsz and Amir Ajan.

Floreat Athena looked set to join Armadale on maximum points thanks to Nicholas Ambrogio's first-half penalty at Frank Drago Reserve. However, for the second week running Perth SC pinched a draw with a late goal, this time through Abdul Osman's header with the final touch of the match.

Stirling Macedonia also struck late as they beat hosts Bayswater City 1-0 to join Floreat on four points. Alex Tanevski, who scored two against Perth in Round One, netted the winner.
