Events

Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Perth Glory FC and Macarthur FC is underway.
  • 5' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 8' Luke Brattan was booked on 8.
  • 13' It’s high time Adam Griffiths made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 18' The travelling Macarthur FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 23' It looks like no one’s ball. Perth Glory FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 27' Scott Wootton is having his name booked by the referee on 27.
  • 32' Rafael Duran has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 26 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
  • 37' 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 Brian Kaltak suffering a number of foals already.
  • 42' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Alex Robinson made 149 appearances and scored 0 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 47' Macarthur FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 48' Perth Glory FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Nicholas Pennington on 48.
  • 53' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Perth Glory FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 56' Macarthur FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Dean Bosnjak is hanging Rafael Duran on the field on 56 minute.
  • 61' It looks surprising Macarthur FC does not make any changes. Gabriel Popovic has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 66' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 68' What a strike from Luke Vickery! The score is 1-1.
  • 68' Another substitution for Perth Glory FC to replace Jaiden Kucharski by Stefan Colakovski on 68 minute.
