Soccer: Schimmel double secures Kamo final berth

Kamo have booked their place in Saturday's Stafford Choat football final against Tikipunga.

A Steve Schimmel double has seen Kamo book their place in Saturday's Stafford Choat football final against Tikipunga.

However, Schimmel and his teammates had to work for the 2-0 result after Onerahi brought their 'A' game on Tuesday night.

Kamo coach Nick Smith credited Onerahi for their play, particularly in the first spell.

"They [Onerahi] played very well, particularly in the first half," Smith commented. "In the first 20 minutes or so they came out fired up and had a whole string of corners. They really took the game to us at the start. Then, we slowly got into."

Smith said Kamo managed a much better second half after his side stuck to the game plan.

Tikipunga will play Kamo on Saturday in what will be the main match as knockout football finals head to Toll Stadium.
