This year’s Chatham Cup final will bring together arch-rivals Auckland City and Wellington Olympic.
In the past year, the two clubs have met in the grand final of the Men’s National League (won by Olympic) and in a two-game play for the OFC Champions League (won by City).
They’ll meet in the Chatham Cup final at North Harbour Stadium, Albany, on Saturday September 7, after winning semi-finals on Sunday.
Auckland City had the toughest passage, needing extra time to get past Northern League rivals Birkenhead United at Kiwitea Street.
Tied 2-2 after normal time, Angus Kilkolly struck twice in extra time to complete a hat-trick and complete a 4-2 win, on the day the club celebrated its 20th anniversary.
Earlier in the day, Central League champions Wellington Olympic beat Coastal Spirit 5-1, after falling behind early.
Spirit’s leading goalscorer Alejandro Steinwascher found the net in the 13th minute but Olympic’s Hamish Watson levelled five minutes later.
In the second half, Olympic took control and secured their passage to the final.
