WSW into the final, their fans will be insuferable this season.
Is the final being played in australia?
2-0 it finishes. WSW to face Al Hilal in the first leg of the ACL final on OCt 25th

Hope WSW get tonked tonight in the first leg but they will probably jag an ugly 1-0 win.
Are people watching this? Or the derby?
Derby just because it is on Sky sports and I am likely to see a red card :P
Go WSW.
Good on wsw. A win so 90 minutes to go
that is a pretty sweet cross there
Amazingly WSW won from one good cross and a sweet finish, despite being under the pump for most of the game.
To be fair, I kept tuning in periodically, alternating between this and the Melbourne derby, so I may have missed anything exceptional on their part. I was more interested in seeing David Vila since he has now cut his stay short, than WSW. Shame, he is leaving, it would have been great to see him walk out onto the Westpac Stadium pitch to the tune of "who are ya?", followed by thunderous applause.

The best side was Al-Hilal but that is the way games can go. I will be very surprised if WSW can hang onto this 1-0 in the return leg.
Their sponsorship is worth 23 million dollars a year so these guys are not bunnies. They can afford to get top players from all over the world.
Pretty hard for any A league team to compete with those sort of resources.
WSW were extremely lucky Al Hilal didn't pack their scoring boots, and then took their virtually one and only chance. good on them they are in with a shot but you've got to imagine that Al Hilal won't be as wasteful in front of goal for the return leg.
A must read if you want a laugh:

Streaming is the only way to watch the ACL in NZ, unfortunately.
Currently 0-0 after 58mins. Still 1-0 agg to WSW.
WSW first shot in 58min, while Al-Hilal have had 12 so far.
am shouting at the screen now. I have got involved!
http://world-livestreaming.eu/western-sydney-wanderers-vs-al-hilal-live-streaming/ is what I am using, Bit rough but...
Wow! Al Hilal 0 WSW 0.
Pleased for them and what this could do for the A-League in terms of reputation, revenue etc; but jesus their fans are going to be beyond insufferable
An amazing achievement for such a young club. Great for the profile of the A-League.
Great promotional line for Friday's game. Wellington Phoenix v Asian Champions.
Well done WSW! Superb achievement.

Who, WSW or the Saudi scum who spat out at the end?
Bastards! Cocked up a massive multibet for me!
Fourteen WSW fans got visas. They look like they enjoyed it,
Got to give credit to WSW for their incredible achievement.
So they pretty much Greeced the title?
