Whittlesea Ranges on their winning way

Whittlesea Ranges moved themselves further away from the relegation zone with a win in National Premier League 2 west.

With only five points between them and bottom side Sunshine George Cross, the Ranges knew that picking up any points against Werribee City would be vital.

They managed to come away with all three points, beating the Bees 2-1.

Aydin Mustedanagic scored the opener for the Ranges, with Anthony Ramzy scoring the other.

The Bees goal came courtesy of an own goal.

It was a second straight win for the Ranges and their ninth of the season.

They move eight points clear of Sunshine George Cross with three rounds remaining and are four points clear of second bottom side Ballarat City.

The Ranges could seal their spot in NPL 2 in their match against Melbourne Victory.

Meanwhile in the NPL, Hume City lost 2-0 at home against Oakleigh Cannons on Saturday night.

The Cannons opened the scoring early to hit the front in the ninth minute.

Neither side was able to add to the scores in the first half, before the Cannons doubled the lead in the 55th minute.

There was no late comeback from Hume as they suffered a big loss.

Hume sits 10th, seven points clear of the relegation zone.
