Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Wellington Phoenix FC gets underway.
- 5' Ryan Lowry has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 26 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 10' Perth Glory FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 10.
- 15' The energy levels are beginning to show. Tony Popović might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 19' Shane Lowry has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 19 minutes.
- 24' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 24 minutes.
- 29' 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.
- 34' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Dylan Fox made 209 appearances and scored 1 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 35' A stunning finish from Chris Ikonomidis — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 40' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Perth Glory FC and Wellington Phoenix FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 45' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Perth Glory FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 50' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 55' Antony Golec has been relatively quiet despite scoring 0 goals in his last 208 appearances.
- 56' The referee shows Wellington Phoenix FC player a Yellow card on 56.
- 61' Both keepers have barely been tested. Perth Glory FC and Wellington Phoenix FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 64' GOAL! Andy Keogh fires home to make it 3-0!
- 69' 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 Liberato Cacace suffering a number of foals already.
- 70' A tactical swap from Wellington Phoenix FC — Cillian Sheridan on, Michal Kopczynski off on 70 minutes.
- 73' It is a substitution in Perth Glory FC team. Neil Kilkenny is replaced by Jake Brimmer on 73 minute.
- 77' Matt Spiranovic picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
- 82' Perth Glory FC are happy to let the opposition have the ball in their own half. The trap is set.
- 83' Scott Neville has so much to prove this time. He replaces Ivan Franjic on 83 minute.
- 85' Wellington Phoenix FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Antony Golec is hanging Tom Doyle on the field on 85 minute.
- 90' Wellington Phoenix FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- The points are shared — Perth Glory FC 3-0 Wellington Phoenix FC. Honours even.
