Thomas Kristensen - 6.5

Some defence splitting passes in the first half gave Wellington more to fear than his usual break up of play. Scored the second and Brisbane’s equaliser from a corner. 

Matt McKay - 6

Passing game was on point, holding possession as well as threading the needle on a few occasions. His partnership with Kristensen is a godsend for Aloisi and Brisbane.

Brett Holman - 7

A spectacular first time volley to put Brisbane a goal to the good. Afforded a lot of space outside the Wellington area as he threatened from long range however his passing power and range wavered. 

Eric Bautheac - 5.5

Didn’t have the impact many hoped he would creating only a few half chances in the match. Many overhit passes and poor decision making. 

Massimo Maccarone - 6

Had hardly any service in the first half amongst a half chance wasted after an overhit pass by Brett Holman. Assisted Brett Holman for his brilliant volley to take the lead. 

Fahid Ben Khalfallah - 5.5

Very quiet for Brisbane. I believe he’s struggling to find space to be truly effective amongst the creative freedom given to Eric Bautheac. Botched a golden opportunity to take all three points missing a clear cut chance in the box.
