Andrew Redmayne

While it was an ultimately even contest, Redmayne kept the Sky Blues alive on many occasions through his agile frame and quick reflexes...that and a few hit-and-hopes from the likes of Giancarlo Gallifuoco and Abraham Majok.

WORST

Crowding the ref

The Wanderers haven't exactly been famed for their discipline under Markus Babbel (the German coach wasn't afraid of chucking a boot in during his career either) but their dispiriting opening 15minutes was a lousy start to the match.

Three yellow cards in a quarter of an hour can be a fiery way to start a derby, sure. But aggressively crowding the referee after a fairly average tackle from Brandon O'Neill is a little OTT. 

A well-deserved yellow to Raul Llorente the only result, but it's a bad look for the game and an undoubtedly intimidating experience for Shaun Evans.

Bloodsport

It's fairly rare that an A-League game should spawn one blood-soaked kit, but between the likes of Roly Bonevacia and Josh Brillante there was enough blood spilled between these two to feed a blood bank. 

That, and fill a Savers with blood-soaked football shirts. A testament to the overall fiery nature of the game, the Wanderers were fighting for pride and fought hard enough to probably convince a decent crowd to pack the Wanderers stadium next season.
