Jermaine Grandison was target for Milerock in the 62nd minute.  In a post match comment Alpha United coach Wayne Dover stated:“Alpha has demonstrated for a while that we are the best team in the country. The lack of competitiveness has caused come complacency and we need to create a situation where we have a good competitive league. That being said, it was a good game. Milerock came with a good crop of young players which augurs well for the future. While the disparity is still evident and Alpha has a lot of experienced and seasoned campaigners, Milerock had some good success and created some chances in the final third.”
