Melbourne’s city-stopping fixture was back for another instalment, and it didn’t let anyone down. The temperature was set to high early on, when the VAR was utilised to disallow a quick Victory goal.

Melbourne Victory
Lawrence Thomas - 6
Solid game. Didn’t have much to do, but defended his goal when he needed to.

Thomas Deng – 5.5
A strong defensive game, but it took him a while to become accustomed to the new role out wide, getting caught chasing his opponents.
James Donachie – 7
Didn’t take any nonsense, cleared most danger and held the defence smartly and strongly.
Rhys Williams – 6
Back in Socceroos contention and tonight’s performance was just as good as his recent. Really well worked ball movement and smart defensive play.
Leigh Broxham - 6
Gave away a silly penalty with a potential brain fade to give away the handball. Made up for his error with a delightful assist for a Leroy George goal.
