Reasonably enticing odds for WSW and Roar.

I might have a flutter... (also Suwon over Beijing Guoan)

Should be 1-1 but for Hyphen missing a sitter.

What the hell has happened to that surface? Looks like they've held a monster truck rally on it.

This just in from my Wanderers fan mate at the ACL game:

"5,000 Chinese fans have turned up!"

About to kick off. A not too damaging injury to Broich would be acceptable. Nothing serious, just a wee strain to keep him sidelined this Sunday.

They are really struggling in their defending, fingers crossed it happens again on Sunday

This could easily end 2-5 tbh, Roar keep turning the ball over and getting hit with the quick counter

And yet for most of the first half they were all over Suwong and could've had 3 or 4. Roar have played some very good footy up front but yeah that defence is a mess.

Fudge, missed that goal!

Cheers, RR. Pretty entertaining game with some cracking goals and some shoddy defence. I still think we are going to struggle against Roar though but then I'm an eternal pessimist when it comes to the Nix.

I can't help but feel the keeper should have done more with that. It went straight over him.

I've only seen the last 20 minutes but some of WSW's play has been woeful. The two Haliti efforts on goal were quite funny. It takes something special to be that donkey-like.

He was lucky to not be sent off just before half time, came face to face with a Seoul player and i could swear he pushed his head forward into him.

And yet WSW could have killed the game off but for some poor option taking on attack. Been watching La Rocca this season and he is incredibly error prone. Very overrated in my opinion.

He has been rubbish. I can't see WSW re-signing him for next season tbh
