Keanu Baccus – 7.5

No great penetration with his passing, but recycled the ball well to help his side keep possession. Clipped a lovely ball over the top in the lead-up to the third goal.

Jordan O’Doherty – N/A

Came off after 15 minutes with a suspected concussion.

Bruce Kamau – 6

An ineffectual display from the winger, who was often muscled off the ball.

Nick Fitzgerald – 6.5

Forced to drop into holding midfield after O’Doherty went off. His unfamiliarity with the position was evident and Babbel eventually dragged him off for Mahazi.

Roly Bonevacia – 7

Had a largely quiet game, and didn’t cover himself in glory with a blatant dive in the second half. However, his unerring finish for the Wanderers’ second was all class.

Kwame Yeboah – 8.5

Had two decent opportunities before bundling in his first goal in red and black from a corner. Did it come off his chest? His face? As they say, they all count. 

His movement was positive and a thorn in the side of the Glory back three, and if the goal he scored was fortuitous, there was no coincidence about his two direct assists.

Subs

Abraham Majok – 7.5

Came off the bench far earlier than expected, and had a great opportunity in the first half which he sidefooted narrowly wide. His skills came to the fore and Western Sydney played on the break in the second half, as he was involved in the build-up for the second goal, and smashed the third emphatically beyond Liam Reddy to claim his first at A-League level.

Rashid Mahazi – 5

The holding midfielder was brought on to shore up the team, but did anything but. His side conceded four times while he was on the pitch.

Jaushua Sotirio – N/A

Not given enough time to influence proceedings.
