City/Phoenix finished nil all

Burns missed a penalty. Hit it straight at Velaphi

cracking game tonight. ended up 4-1 with two penalties and two sendoffs (and neither were involved in the pens)

united finally took their chances in front of goal, which is what they havent been doing lately.

A good win but both sides had their eyes on next week, no pressure and trying to avoid injuries. Both sides rested players aswell. I actually was t too fussed if we won tonight, think we are far better off getting City again next week

yeah probably agree with that.

what are your thoughts on the reds most likely playing their final at adelaide oval next week?

Dead against playing at AO, terrible ground to play soccer on, ruins it as a spectacle and the players hate it. I understand the game revolves around money but Hindmarsh is one of the best surfaces in the A-League and why would you give home ground advantage for a final?
I really hope it stays at Hindmarsh

its a tough decision. because the realities are, if they get 20k+ at adelaide oval that could be the difference between profitability and not (not sure of the economic specifics, but i assume it will be much better for them at AO)

Hindmarsh holds about 17k so you would want alot more than 20k at AO to even consider moving. Im a big no for it, too much home advantage to concede for a final. Horrid to watch aswell, will end up being an ugly game like always.
Give me a decent spectacle in a great atmosphere with 15k over a crap game in a half empty stadium anyday. Unfortunately money will have the final say this time IMO

If at AO it will be played on Friday night but then the grass will be too short for Sunday.

Give me Hindmarsh anytime

Please not Friday. Norwood is on Friday night and there is a large contingent of Norwood/AU supporters, ill be at the Parade as will many others

There is talk the game could be Saturday night. Whether it's then or Friday night it's a big possibility it will be at AO and Sep isn't happy about it.

If it's Friday I can't go as my boys are playing their first ever game of footy and if it's Saturday, South are at home to the interlopers

United win 2-1

Foxtel Go comes in handy.
Smurfs next week

awesome game to watch too. Brisbane's keeper was probably best on ground, denied Adelaide so many times. Having said that Brisbane also had their fair share of chances. could have easily been 5 or 6 goals

perfect game for people who dont normally watch football. plenty of chances and great saves. Was a decent match to watch as i dont myself watch A League , only EPL.

Anyone know the crowd ?
