Perth Glory deserved the win, showing what an organised team can achieve through discipline and quality players. Liam Reddy signposted so before the match: “All the boys looking sharp and looking to pick up three points”
Ivan Franjic – 7
Working hard, putting in some dangerous deliveries. Another player giving Perth width but on the right-hand side this time. Pressing well, staying out wide. Subbed 64th minute.
Diego Castro – 7.5
Solid body strength, holds onto the ball well in the final third, always looking for an opening.
Fluffed his chance on the half-hour mark. Redeemed himself with a soft shot on goal which rolled into the net. Always looking lively and dangerous. Subbed 86th minute
Joel Chianese – 7
Had a fantastic effort on goal, just needed a little more from the head. Another quality header connected very well.
Chris Ikonomidis – 8
Sublime ball control, always looking to move the ball forward. Finding space when he gets hold of the ball. Good balance when on the ball.
Held the play up extremely well, looked very comfortable when in possession.
SUBS
Andy Keogh – 6
On for Ivan Franjic. Decent efforts, rolled his man too easily but shot just wide. Picked up a sloppy pass and coolly slots the ball past Izzo.
Fabio Ferreira - N/A
On for Diego Castro. Not on long enough to rate.
