Isaias Sanchez - 4 

He made no real impact, dropping deep to pick up the ball, kept quiet by Perth’s constant pressing game.

Vince Lia - 3 

Poor game from Lia, could not take control of the midfield, kept very quiet. Contribution was a yellow card. Should have been subbed earlier.

Mirko Boland - 5 

Slow start, but grew into the game, won a couple of duels. His cross into the box led to a shout for a penalty after Shane Lowry handlled the ball. Suffered hamstring tightness late on and was subbed.

Craig Goodwin - 5 

Produced his famous swinging crosses but overall Perth made sure he didn’t have the impact coach Marco Kurz was hoping for.

Ben Halloran - 4 

A couple of good attacking runs inside the area and nice crosses. Notable action was when he closed down goalkeeper Liam Reddy to force a corner.

Apostolos Stamatelopoulos - 4 

He took an awkward fall when trying to header the ball. Unable to stamp his authority up front.

SUBS:

Michael Marrone - 3

Came on for Galloway but made no impact down the right-side, off the pace.

Ryan Kitto - 5

Not given enough time when he came on the pitch but did hold up the ball well to keep the attacking momentum going late on.

Sub-Ken Ilso - 6 

Looked lively when he took to the field for Boland. Always looking dangerous, beautiful flick for Halloran, made a good impact. Should have come on earlier. Made good runs into the box.
