A-League Grand Final: After extra time the defenders for both teams were the standout players on the pitch. After penalties, Perth Glory will have to wait another season to finally get their first toilet seat.
Brandon O’Neill 7.5
Did a lot of covering for Grant on the right and even sometimes for Zullo on the left. Both Sydney defensive midfielders were playing like fullbacks at times.
Josh Brillante 7.5
Good positioning and discipline from Sydney’s defensive midfielders forced Castro much deeper than he’d have liked. That’s to their credit.
Milos Ninkovic 7
He got himself in behind the Glory defence a few times but his final ball or final decision were just a little off tonight. He's lucky to get the Joe Marston medal, there were more impressive performances tonight.
Siem de Jong 5.5
Whilst he may be the player with the best resume on the pitch he doesn’t stand out anywhere near as much as his team mates.
Alex Brosque 7.5
We were all shocked to see that Brosque didn’t bleed sky blue. He copped a sharp elbow to the back of his head in the first half and the blood was red! He fought hard tonight with few chances to trouble the goal. If tonight is his last A League game he put in a good show and led his team well.
Adam Le Fondre 5.5
A record Grand Final crowd was counted tonight and Le Fondre might have been counted as one of the spectators.

SUBS
Anthony Caceres 7
He made a very good impact when he came on.
Reza Ghoochamejad 7
His first touches after coming on provided Sydney with a good chance. He ended up slotting home the deciding penalty.
