Led brilliantly by captain David Onoforo, the reigning champions were too good for their opponents in a classic contest.

Onoforo bagged a goal of his own before setting up teammate Ian McMurray with a late winner, while the Knights' Stuart Montgomery had scored a penalty before half time to see his side level at the main break.

A double from Johnny Mirco propelled Floreat Athena to a 4-2 victory over a gallant Cockburn City at Dalmatinac Park on Saturday afternoon.

After a spectacular opening 30 minutes that saw both sides at their attacking best and scores level at two goals apiece, the match changed after a late tackle by Cockburn's Adrian Webster on Jason Barrera.

It resulted in a straight red card for the former Perth Glory midfielder, allowing Athena to capitalise on its numerical advantage and score two second-half goals to seal victory.

A deflected shot by Inglewood United's Ryan Clarke with 12 minutes remaining was enough for a shock one-nil victory over Armadale at Alfred Skeet Oval.

The defeat was the home side's first loss in six matches and saw Inglewood lift itself off the bottom of the Premier League table.

Sorrento put in a dominant performance as they cruised to a 4-2 win over Balcatta at Percy Doyle Reserve on Saturday afternoon.

Glen Thomas and David Foster both scored braces for the home side, who cruised for most of the game before two Balcatta goals in the last 25 minutes gave the scoreline some respectability.

The result sees Sorrento leapfrog their opponents into fourth place on the Football West State League ladder.

Stirling Lions and ECU Joondalup shared the points in a highly entertaining 1-1 draw at Macedonia Park.

With both sides in need of a victory, it was the visitors who drew first blood when skipper Dale McCulloch gave them a 16th-minute lead.

But somewhat against the run of play, Roberto Lujan fired in the equaliser four minutes before half-time.

Incredibly, that was the end of the scoring, despite both sides peppering the goal after the interval, particularly in a hectic final 20 minutes when Mario Marcinko crashed a stunning volley against the upright for the Lions.

Mandurah City moved off the bottom of the Football West Premier League table with an emphatic 3-1 win against Swan United at Francis Street.

A double from Nicky Platt and a spectacular volley from Rafael Insaurralde was enough for Stuart Young's side, while Liam Boland's header was United's only consolation.

The loss now sends the Swan Valley club to the foot of the table.
