Have A-FC ever lost a goal when defending? I think they have goals against from counterattack. It was a good textbook defence. Bringing on Pijnaker for Cosgrove was a logical move for Corica after Hall was dismissed, and loss of Rogerson was unimportant to their defence.

Not sure why Phoenix spent the majority of time against 9-men launching long balls in.

If you're Auckland you're stoked to be defending crosses instead of chasing the ball.
 
On the deck move it around. I think the theory was Piper and Eze in the air were our strengths. 

Armiento should have been off those corners and shooting from the top of the box.
