Events

Match Events

0' The match kicks off with home fans waiting with anticipation for Western Sydney Wanderers FC to score. At the same time, Western United FC does not seem to pull back! Let’s get it on!
5' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
10' It’s high time John Aloisi made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
15' It looks like no one’s ball. Western United FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
20' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Western United FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
25' Tomoki Imai needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Yellow cards this season.
30' The travelling Western United FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
35' 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.
40' Western Sydney Wanderers FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
45' Alex Gersbach puts Western Sydney Wanderers FC on the lead.
46' Luke Vickery has so much to prove this time. He replaces Matthew Grimaldi on 46 minute.
51' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
56' Riku Danzaki has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
61' Western United FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 61.
62' The whistle greets Rhys Bozinovski as he departs to be replaced by Jordan Lauton.
66' What an equalizer from Matthew Sutton!
71' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Western United FC that had 150 games and scored 248 goals.
75' Western Sydney Wanderers FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Marcus Antonsson is hanging Zac Sapsford on the field on 75 minute.
80' Another substitution for Western United FC to replace Ben Garuccio by James Donachie on 80 minute.
85' 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 Ramy Najjarine suffering a number of foals already.
87' It’s a booking for Western Sydney Wanderers FC player. Oscar Priestman gets a card.
89' Western United FC receives a card for a hard tackle on 89.
89' It is a substitution in Western Sydney Wanderers FC team. Nicolas Milanovic is replaced by Aydan Hammond on 89 minute.
