Pakenham United is still without points eight rounds into the season after going down 4-0 to Mentone on the weekend.
The visitors gave up two first half goals and were always playing catch-up after that, eventually succumbing to a 4-0 loss after giving up goals in the 57 and 74-minute-mark.
Adding insult to the result was that they finished the game with just 10 men.
After receiving a yellow just before halftime, Vincent Makota was sent off at the 85-minute-mark.
It’s the second consecutive week Pakenham has been held scoreless, and having a goal difference of -26 is indicative of a tough first seven rounds.
It doesn’t get any easier for United, which next takes on Casey, which is so far 3-1-3.
Bunyip, meanwhile, is moving along nicely in fourth place on the ladder after a 1-0 victory over Barton.
Liam Lenders continued his impressive form, scoring in the 56th minute for the Strikers.
Top team Hampton Park had the bye.
