Events

Match Events

0' Sydney FC have kicked off against Newcastle United Jets FC. Both sides are eager to make an early statement.
5' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
6' Magnificent from Milos Ninkovic! That is 14 goals in 215 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
9' Mathew Millar has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 9 minutes.
14' The travelling Newcastle United Jets FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
19' Ryan McGowan has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
24' Sydney FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 24.
29' Angus Thurgate catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 29.
34' Sydney FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined Newcastle United Jets FC backline.
39' Alex Wilkinson is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Sydney FC tonight.
42' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Adam Le Fondre makes it 2-1.
46' It is a substitution in Newcastle United Jets FC team. Angus Thurgate is replaced by Ben Kantarovski on 46 minute.
51' What a strike from Johnny Koutroumbis! The score is 2-2.
56' The home supporters are growing impatient. Sydney FC must find a spark to ignite this game.
61' It looks surprising Newcastle United Jets FC does not make any changes. Rhyan Grant has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
65' The New Zealand Kosta Barbarouses breaks the deadlock on 65 minutes. 3-2!
69' A change in the Sydney FC ranks — Milos Ninkovic exits the field as Anthony Caceres enters on 69.
71' Nick Fitzgerald gets the nod from Newcastle United Jets FC. He replaces Abdiel Arroyo and will look to change the dynamic.
73' A change in the Sydney FC ranks — Rhyan Grant exits the field as Joel King enters on 73.
74' A moment of madness from Nigel Boogaard on 74 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Newcastle United Jets FC will be frustrated.
79' Glen Moss has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 26 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
83' Trent Buhagiar is replacing Alex Wilkinson for the Sydney FC side.
88' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Nigel Boogaard made 206 appearances and scored 2 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
It finishes all square. Sydney FC and Newcastle United Jets FC share the spoils 4-1.
