Azzurri knock holders RedStar out of State Cup, Freo NTC and MUM FC also through to last four

Perth SC have knocked holders Perth RedStar out of the Hyundai Women's State Cup.

Goals from Ella Lincoln, Abbey Meakins and Gemma Craine gave the Azzurri a 3-1 quarter-final win at Dorrien Gardens this afternoon over the side that defeated them in last year's final. Abbey Woolley netted for RedStar near the end.

Also into the last four are Fremantle City and Hyundai NTC.

Fremantle scored twice late on to win 3-1 at Balcatta Etna.

Olivia Trueman put the visitors in front at Grindleford Reserve, while Tia Stonehill equalised for the Etna. Then two minutes from the end, Carys Hawkins restored Freo's advantage and Abbey Green made sure of victory not long after.

An outstanding first-half performance set up NTC for a 4-2 win over Subiaco at E&D Litis Stadium.

Two goals from Georgia Cassidy and one apiece for Daisy Groenewald-Shield and Maja Archibald had NTC 4-0 up at half-time, and despite replies from substitute Siena Crevacore and Dakota Van-Vugt it was the youngsters who progressed.

Murdoch University Melville Football Club's NPL class told at Carine Open Space today as they defeated Division One Hamersley Rovers Soccer Club 3-0 to clinch a place in the Hyundai Women's State Cup semi-finals.

Jessica Johnson had the visitors ahead by the break, then two goals in quick succession early in the second half made the tie safe. Substitute Isabella Wainwright made it two, quickly followed by the third from Sophie Meaden.
