Kingston City secured a comfortable 4-1 victory over Altona City in the Victorian Premier League 2 on Saturday, moving further clear of the relegation zone. The match took place at Altona's home ground on 15 August 2026, with the visitors taking control after a brief opening exchange. By then, the gap between the sides looked considerable on the scoreboard.
M. Nielo gave Altona an early advantage, netting in the 43rd minute to settle the hosts. Kingston responded almost immediately, with T. Biss finding the back of the net in the 46th minute to level matters. Nielo then restored his side's lead just two minutes later, showing patience in front of goal to slot home his second.
The momentum shifted decisively after the interval. D. Rellos pulled Kingston ahead in the 52nd minute, and M. Abuusba sealed the result with a composed finish in the 80th minute. To be fair, Altona had chances to respond but could not find a way through a disciplined Kingston defence.
Altona sit 13th in the table with 17 points from 26 games, having won only three matches this season. Kingston occupy 10th place with 30 points, their record showing nine victories and three draws. The visitors have notched five goals in their last five fixtures, including a 5-3 win over Morland City.
This result extends Kingston's positive run while deepening Altona's struggles. The hosts have drawn two and lost three of their last five outings, a run that cannot afford another slip. Kingston now look comfortable in mid-table, with no immediate pressure to push higher.
