We cracked them. Great assist.

This opens up the game nicely for us now. Brisbane will have to come and look for something, and we love a transition/counter.

I don’t know if it’s happened tonight or not, but I like the idea of LKH crossing the ball to Kosta. It’s some sort of reverse poetry.

The halftime peptalk from Italiano must have been something special.

Good strength OVH. Nice feet Kraev. Get both of you down to the opposition penalty area! Take the ball.

Wake up boys- sub time. Game’s changed. Let’s react properly.

Pennington wins the ball well often but fudge me if he doesn't make me concerned when he decided to lose in the worst spots possible.

What a tackle OVH!

Do we man mark him? Just creates space then I guess. Chief should have a plan.

Now is not the time to invite pressure. We need to bring the game to them and get a second goal

Yep, although there already seems to be some heavy legs in our guys. Looks to me like we are going to try hang on to this one in Uffie fashion.

 I was going to ask about that. Really silly yellow to get. Could have waited a while and see how it played out

Just look at how well Rojas gets into positions. Great to watch.

Our passing is letting us down here. When we get the ball back we hand it over cheaply

I didn't like how pooped Al-Taay looked when he thought he was coming off...and then he gave a couple of balls away...

...and just as I send this, he gets dragged for Old. Good move, though hopefully the youngster doesn't make his ankle worse

Surely this can't be the game plan? We have got to keep the ball in their half and create some opportunities, and ideally convert one.
On the balance, Brisbane deserve a goal. They've had a couple of good chances and about 5-6 half chances and sooner or later one of these has got to go in. Come on Oskar, get your head in the game

Based on tonight's performance I would very much like to see a bit more of Hughes as we make our way through the latter part of the season. Lad looks tidy, composed and confident - especially for someone who has just made his starting debut.

Good to see the young Kiwi lads making a good fist of their opportunities when given their chance.
