Jacob Melling – 6

Was solid in midfield but gave away a few fouls. Wasn’t overly involved in attack despite his more advanced midfield role and eventually was taken off in the 54th minute to let Bonevacia go forward in a strategic substitution.

Alvaro Cejudo – 5

Cejudo looked good to start the game but was the sacrificial lamb in the 27th minute for Brendan Hamill in a tactical switch after the red card.

Jaushua Sotirio – 7

Is great when running with the ball and advanced Western Sydney into promosing areas throughout the game, but at times fell short in other departments, such as passing and crossing. He played deeper after the red card and showed great competence in his defensive duties.

Jumpei Kusukami – 6.5

Unfortunately, Jumpei was unable to show his X-factor after his side went a man down. He’d started the game well and was removed from the match in the second half.

Oriol Riera – 6.5

Butchered a good attack in the first half by trotting on the ball and nearly had an equaliser in the second when his header hit the crossbar. He’s a great penalty area striker but involvements in a deeper position aren’t a great strength.

Brendan Hamill – 5

Was introduced in the 27th minute to play in defence. His interception work was solid, but his mistake which led to the second goal was unforgiveable.

Kearyn Baccus – 6

Replaced Melling in the second half and was tasked with holding the midfield as Bonevacia was released forward. Did his job well for the time he was on.

Mark Bridge – 5

Was brought on for Kusukami in the 65th minute but had limited impact on the match.
