The draw's out - United have Sydney first up, at Hindmarsh on Friday 17 October.

Our triple-up games are Western Sydney and Macarthur (twice home) and Victory and Wellington (twice away).

The new national second division (group stage then knockout rather than full league structure, no promotion to A-League) kicked off last night, with South Melbourne defeating Sydney Olympic in an entertaining game in front of nearly 7,000. Promising early signs. Metrostars are at home this afternoon.

Amazing end to the regular season.
United draw level in the 79th minute but needed a win to make the top two.
All in brawl in the 92nd minute and then United win it in the 98th minute.
Jovanovic with both goals but in the celebrations he copped his second yellow and was sent off so will now miss the first final

A very satisfying win against the biggest bunch of talentless flogs in the southern hemisphere.

Also a big win for Australian soccer, with ACL games potentially being played in front of 12k at Hindmarsh as opposed to 700 people and seagulls in Melbourne.
