Burns set up two goals for skipper Travis Dodd and one for Lucas Pantelis with Diego grabbing the other. All the goals came in the second half after a frustrating opening 45 minutes for the home side. Chances came and went with Duong stubbornly refusing to capitulate.
But once Pantelis had fired United in front on 55 minutes and Dodd doubled the lead moments later, there was no way back for the Vietnamese side.

ADELAIDE 4 BINH DUONG 1

94 FULL-TIME: It's finished 4-1 to Adelaide and what a second half display from Nathan Burns. The youngster provided a hat-trick of assists and will only have attracted further interest from the watching scouts. Had first half chances been taken then it could and should have been an even greater margin of victory.

92 Great timing by Cassio to halt Duc's charge down the right flank.

90 There will be four minutes of added time.

64 GOAL: 3-1. Another goal but this time for the visitors. Duc twists and turns before planting a shot via Galekovich's outstretched arm into the bottom right hand corner.

61 GOAL: 3-0. The Burns-Dodd show again. Burns' skips down the left again and his cross loops invitingly for Dodd to head home. A hat-trick of assists for the youngster.

60 The visitors turn to the bench but is it too little, too late?

58 Almost a third as a Sarkies cross from the right threatens to drop in before the keeper tips over the top.

55 GOAL: 1-0 to Adelaide. Wonderful footwork on the left flank from Burns, threads the ball through to Pantelis who calmly slams the ball into the bottom left hand corner of the net. Wonderful stuff from Burns and a great finish.

54 Salley threads the ball through to Burns on the left edge of the area. Again, he's crowded out and the chance is lost.

The ball is only half cleared and Tran Quang's tremendous thump goalwards comes back off the right post. A real let off for the home side!

HALF-TIME: Adelaide 0 Bin Duong 0. Frustration for the home team and their supporters. Plenty of possession, plenty of good openings but not the required finish. United need to show greater composure in the final third. Dodd, Burns and Diego should all have hit the back of the net in the opening 45 minutes. Surely the goal will come.
