A-Leagues 23/24, The Other Matches Thread

Nisbet picks up the Johnny Warren Medal. That would have been a terrible way to get it if CCM hadn't won, please don't do it again APL. 

Stoked that CCM too that win, fully deserved after the season they've had! Would have been really shark if Victory had won!

Popa has now made 5 Grand Finals & lost every one of them. Wonder what is next for him? 

Didn't Victory ask him to take a pay cut?  

Glad CCM won, but it would be great if they didn't win next season. 

Wow, what a game! Thoroughly enjoyed that. CCM fully deserved the win, they've been the best team all season long. Incredible achievement, 3 trophies in one year...

If he doesn't like his new VUC lower salary, maybe the J League. Aussie coaches seem to do well there. Ange Post, Muscat & now Harry Kewell.

Kewell's Yokohama F. Marinos got to the AFC Champions League Final. Lost 6-3 on aggregate to Al Ain from UAE. Yokohama were 2-1 after the first leg in Japan, but had their keeper sent off at 45 mins in the return leg (2-1 down) and it all fell apart.

Marinos were 2nd in the J League last year under Muscat, who had taken over from Ange Post. Currently mid table under Kewell.

Muscat is now with Shanghai Port in China

Very happy that CCM got the win last night. Very deserved, they've been great almost all season.

And the injury time equaliser to send it to extra time was an awesome way to do it - makes the celebration that much bigger when you think you've just lost it - only to turn it around at the last moment (sounds familiar! - just wish we finished it off in ET last week)

Huge season for them and stoked for Gosford getting to see that at their place
