Steve Glockner separates the cup dream from reality ahead of Strikers tie
ACE coach Steve Glockner is under no illusions about the challenge his side faces at Wolter Park tomorrow, kick-off 7.30pm.
The glamour of the FFA Cup has paired ACE with NPL Queensland side Brisbane Strikers.
“We are playing against very good team, two leagues above us,” said Glockner.
“To play Strikers and win would be wonderful. That’s a bit of a dream, that would be a beautiful night.
“We’re taking it one game at a time and our focus is on this match, but the reality for us is to keep doing well in the league and keep getting three points.”
Strikers were the 1997 National Soccer League (NSL) champions, 2016 NPL Queensland title winners and 2017 NPL Grand Finalists.
They started this season slowly, but are now in fourth after beating derby rivals Brisbane City 4-2 on Saturday. At the same time ACE came from 1-0 down to win 2-1 against Centenary Stormers.
