The friendship between Sydney FC and Melbourne City captains Alex Brosque and Bruno Fornaroli will be on hold for Wednesday nights FFA Cup final.In one sense, its an unlikely mateship that the two duelling skippers share, given they live in different cities and lead warring clubs.But their Uruguayan blood meant Brosque sought out the goalscoring revelation when he landed in Australia and a camaraderie grew.Meeting on Tuesday, Brosque offered Fornaroli a big hug, which the City man almost leaped into.Their friendship is typical of the relationship between the two clubs, which barely approaches a rivalry.Coaches Graham Arnold and John van t Schip shared jokes alongside their captains.Perhaps theyve bonded over a shared loathing of Melbourne Victory, or perhaps its the player movement between the two sides.Sydney FC defenders Alex Wilkinson and Michael Zullo moved north at the end of last season with Citys blessing as van t Schip renovated his squad.Injured winger Corey Gamerio spent two years with Sydney, while goalkeeper Dean Bouzanis also had a spell with the Sky Blues.Animosities are everywhere in the 10-team A-League, but it seems not between these two sides.A fight at executive level over Citys desire to switch to sky blue kits might be the most strain shown between the two.Fornaroli praised his former teammate Wilkinson, who was likely to stand against the Uruguayan at AAMI Park.Hes a fantastic player - a very good defender, he said.But I never think too much about other players. I try to play my game, our game.Tomorrow is one game to play with joy.Its an important game, the first final. We need to play jovially to play good.Brosque, 33, said his longevity in the game taught him of the importance of relishing major moments such as this.You probably appreciate it more as you get older, he said.Ive played in finals before and they come and you dont notice and they pass you by.I know Im not going to be around for too much longer so Im definitely enjoying it a bit more.Hopefully, theres another one at the end of the year to play for.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Florida and Belmont might not open the basketball season against each other after all.The Gators and Bruins originally agreed to play in Jacksonville on Nov. 11, but the matchup could be moved to Tampa to fill the final opening in Floridas nonconference schedule.The Gators have agreed to play at Amelia Arena in Tampa on Nov. 21 but have struggled to find an opponent.
