Admiralty Islands FC and Star Mountains FC Battle to a Draw in Thrilling Match

The much-anticipated clash between Star Mountains FC and Admiralty Islands FC ended in a 2-2 draw, with Admiralty Islands FC showing dominent ball control but struggling to convert opportunities into goals.

From a total of eight goal attempts, Admiralty Islands FC managed to find the net twice. The first goal came early in the match when Steven Posanau headed in a goal just eight minutes into the first half. Star Mountains FC responded with keen determination, keeping the pressure on throughout the game, ultimately scoring two goals against the Admiralties.

Admiralty Islands FC captain Shane Sakael appeared to have scored another crucial goal, only for it to be disallowed by the referee, however, Joe Kilepak redeemed the team’s finishing near the end of the match, slotting home a goal four minutes before full time to secure a hard-fought equalizer.

Despite their dominent ball positioning and control throughout the game, Admiralty Islands FC lacked precision when opportunities presented themselves, which prevented them from securing a win.
