Gives me hope that if you're second on the ladder, you can still beat 1st in the final. Sydney like us also finished two points behind the Minor Premiership winners.

Only way to get Macarthur, is for City to beat the Victory. Sydney winning is a safer option.
1-0
And if City doesn't win, CCM get an easy match after flying back from Oman.

Even more amazing that it was Faghani that gave it, he let's those go for the first 70 mins normally.

It was outside the box. So no penalty. If it was inside, it wouldn't have been a red.

RR Took a man coming off for them to come to life unfortunately.
Ideal situation: they equalise, it goes to extra time, they win on pens but are exhausted having played all of that with only 10 men.

If City beats Victory, we face Sydney. I thought number one team plays the lowest ranked team from the elimination finals and the number two team plays the highest ranked?

Victory (3) v City (6)
Sydney (4) v Macarthur (5)
So if Sydney & City wins, it's 1st vs 6th and 2nd vs 4th

Lets go Uffie FC
Could be quite a high scoring game.
Too easy for Mak, 1-0
Ooh Tommy, that was awful.
"turned like milk" said the commentator. A red card in his last game and then conceding a goal like that in this one. Some end to his Bulls career if Macarthur can't turn this around
Offside flag spares Kurto's blushes. 1-0
That's a disappointing looking crowd. Obviously the rain hasn't helped but even so.
How did Caceres not even get a shot off there? It was almost a tap in. 1-0
Penalty Sydney, VAR checking. 1-0
Wow, a red card for a DOGSO. No penalty. 1-0
That decision is terrible
Not even nine-man specialists Macarthur are going to get out of this one. It seems a harsh reading of the foul to me.
Just seen maks goal. Dufaq was smith doing!?! He trips himself up in the process of losing Mak.
Another step and it's a penalty. I don't think Macarthur could come back from 2-0 down, so in a way maybe the Red Card was the better result in a strange way?
1-0
1-0
Our boy Tommy Smith turned like an ocean liner there. I don't think i've ever seen someone less nimble lol. You've gotta laugh.
Also I assume we want Macarthur to win given whenever we play them we usually hump them?

Smith's not be up to A-League standard and is definitely not worth the import slot. Compare him to Wooton who came to us from a higher level and is younger.
What a chance for Macarthur. 1-0

"An excellent half of football". Between the small crowd, the appalling state of the pitch, a really poor performance by Macarthur and yet another controversial VAR intervention I'd definitely argue the opposite.
Not watching the game, but having seen that Adamson red card back on social media - Honestly, what the hell is happening to our game?

Yea don’t understand that red. A pen absolutely but why the red? I thought the league got rid of that double jeopardy thing.

Even a sarcastic dive from Kurto would've been better than nothing.
Woof. Lolley makes it 2-0
Excellent goal by Lolley. Injures himself in the process. Kucharski on for Lolley. 2:0 at 50 min.
Wow!
So, we want City to beat Victory and this Sydney team to play CCM.

Double substitution for Macarthur.
Watching second half only, seems like a mediocre quality game of sorts.

C'mon the Victory tomorrow.

Kucharsk for Sydney, 3:0. He's been busy since coming on. Sydney lifting the intensity now and have been parked in the Bulls most of the time.
You'd think Macarthur's defenders would've learned from the first two goals that if the attacker starts to cut inside onto his left foot look out.
