Sašo Petrovski (born March 5, 1975) is an Australian football (soccer) player. He is a striker who currently plays for the Newcastle Jets in the Hyundai A-League.

[edit] Club career

Petrovski has the honour for having scored the second hat trick in the A-League, one day after the first was scored. In the old National Soccer League, Petrovski played 94 games and scored 47 goals.

He played for Viborg FF in the Danish Superliga and has two caps for the Australian national team. He made his international debut against Japan in 2001 and scored his first international goal in the Asian Cup qualifier between Australia and Kuwait at Aussie Stadium on 16 August 2006.

On 5 January 2007, it was announced that Petrovski would be reunited with former Sydney FC manager Pierre Littbarski at Japanese second division club Avispa Fukuoka when the current A-League finishes. However, this deal fell through, due to a limit of foreign players in the squad. He then signed with the Central Coast Mariners on 12 February 2007. Petrovski achieved his first milestone for the Gosford club, when he scored his 10th goal in the 3-2 loss to his former club Sydney FC in round 2 of the 2008/2009 season.

On the 3rd of February 2009 he signed a 2 year deal with rivals Newcastle Jets after he could not agree on terms for a new deal with the Mariners. ^[1] Petrovski has enjoyed a successful start to his time at the Jets, scoring three goals in Newcastle's ACL campaign, topping their goal scorers list. He has also become a fan favourite with the Newcastle faithful, with whom he has long been hated, due to his time with Sydney FC and the Central Coast Mariners.

Since joining Newcastle, Petrovski has become just the 6th player to reach 100 A-League games. Petrovksi marked his milestone with a late winner over a Robbie Fowler led North Queensland Fury. Petrovski muscled his way through the Fury defence to put his side up 3-2, with 7 minutes remaining in the match.
