Events
Match Events
- 0' Three points are at stake. Perth Glory FC host Central Coast Mariners FC — let the battle begin!
- 5' It looks surprising Central Coast Mariners FC does not make any changes. Connor Pain has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Ross McCormack suffering a number of foals already.
- 11' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Jacob Melling.
- 12' Chris Ikonomidis adds to his 0 season tally! Perth Glory FC lead 1-0 — and this changes everything.
- 14' Andy Keogh was booked on 14.

- 46' It is a substitution in Perth Glory FC team. Alex Grant is replaced by Dino Dulbic on 46 minute.
- 51' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Matt Simon made 208 appearances and scored 20 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
