Around the grounds: Melbourne City fan’s special gift, Sydney farewell Brosque, Roar delight for Hingert

Melbourne City captain Scott Jamieson made a loyal fan’s day by gifting him a birthday present to remember.

One of City’s biggest supporters, Cam, could not hide his delight when watching a video of Jamieson delivering the surprise.

Cam was rewarded for loyally following City across the country during the Hyundai A-League 2018/19 season.

The Melbourne fan racked up more than 3,000km travelling to cheer on the side from his home in country Victoria. 

Not only will Cam receive a special Melbourne City gift pack, but he will also get the opportunity to meet the team next season – an occasion he will no doubt be more than happy to travel for.

Sydney FC farewell club icon Brosque

The J-League outfit ran out 4-0 winners at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium as head coach Steve Corica rang the changes following his team’s Hyundai A-League Grand Final triumph against Perth Glory on Sunday.

Brosque leaves a lasting legacy at Sydney FC having signed off on his career by lifting his third Hyundai A-League title, adding to the same accomplishment in 2010 and 2017.
