Was at ANZ. Imo, smurfs played better in the first half. Had the clearest chances including a shot from bug that hit the post. Having the likes of Ninko and Caceres as playmakers gives any team good ball possession and distribution. Ours, troissi and muller aren’t the same quality. In the second half the game opened up and players found more time and space to create chances. It was an even game with both teams having opportunities to open the score. The penalty was soft but it gave the ref and VAR no other option. It was an intentional obstruction by troissi on ninko. Birnie for Cox gave the Wanderers more speed and strength going forward. Imo, Ibini should start.
Both coaches made changes and those worked out more beneficial for WSWs. Cortica did us a favour by replacing Caceres ( their best player at that moment ) with BJH. The German smurf, as when he was red & black, still an average player. No impact. We’re thankful to Redders for levelling the scores for us .After Redders’ gift, no much else happened. It felt as if both teams were satisfied with a draw.
Not a bad game for the neutrals.At the end, Sydney is still red & black.
