Live comments

  • 0' - KICK OFF: Melbourne City FC gets 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.
  • 7' - It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Jordan Bos.
  • 12' - Melbourne City 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.
  • 16' - GOAL! David Ball scores on 16.
  • 18' - What an equalizer from Mathew Leckie!
  • 22' - Melbourne City FC receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 22.
  • 27' - 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.
  • 28' - The referee shows Wellington Phoenix FC player a Yellow card on 28.
  • 33' - Melbourne City FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 33.
  • 38' - The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Melbourne City FC that had 128 games and scored 283 goals.
  • 43' - The travelling Melbourne City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 46' - The Melbourne City FC manager makes a substitution. Curtis Good departs to be replaced by Nuno Reis.
  • 50' - What a strike from Jamie MacLaren! The score is 1-2.
  • 51' - GOAL! Jamie MacLaren scores on 51.
  • 53' - Kosta Barbarouses has so much to prove this time. He replaces Steven Peter Ugarkovic on 53 minute.
  • 58' - looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 63' - 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 Thomas Lam suffering a number of foals already.
  • 67' - The Melbourne City FC manager makes a substitution. Callum Talbot departs to be replaced by Scott Galloway.
  • 70' - A meaty challenge results in booking for Richard van der Venne on 70.
  • 75' - Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 75 minutes.
  • 80' - While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Richard van der Venne made 128 appearances and scored 15 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 85' - It’s high time Ufuk Talay made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 86' - Another change for Melbourne City FC made on 86 minute. Richard van der Venne leaves to be changed by Scott Jamieson.
