Adelaide took the lead through Craig Goodwin, who latched onto Nikola Mileusnic's cross after some beautiful build-up play from a phenomenal - and newly crowned Australian - Isaias.

Two minutes later Adelaide had their second through Ken Ilso, the Dane robbing Thomas Deng and slotting past Lawrence Thomas for a comprehensive Reds win.

ADELAIDE UNITED

Paul Izzo - 7  

Fantastic save to deny Toivionen's free-kick, stretching every sinew to reach his near post. 

Ryan Strain - 6       

He did the simple stuff well, but Adelaide looked far more threatening when Isaias barged over to the wide midfield role when the Reds were on the counter, and more-or-less did Strain's job for him. 

Scott Galloway - 7

He's showing fantastic qualities this season, which just hasn't quite matched up with an end product yet. All he needs is a breakthrough couple of weeks, much like Nikola Mileusnic had, and he'll be a force to be reckoned with.  

Jordan Elsey - 7  

Solid display, regaining a bit of confidence after some uncharacteristically sloppy performances this season.    

Michael Jakobsen - 8      

Indolent forward contributions but rock-solid at the back.
