A Siem de Jong special and Roy Krishna screw-up was all that separated the sides as Wellington Phoenix went down 1-0 to Sydney FC at Westpac Stadium.

Milos Ninkovic - 7
Frustrated, he can be a finicky niggler at times when defenders are dominating him. Overdid it a bit, but offered a few excellent runs as well, one particularly exciting driving surge in the second half.
Adam Le Fondre - 6
Nothing doing for the golden boot leader except a few tame efforts.
Siem de Jong - 7
Scored, hacked, withdrawn.
Subs
Daniel De Silva - 7
One of Sydney's best, constantly getting on the ball in the forward third. Never stopped running.
Alex Brosque - 7
While slightly more limited in his impact than De Silva, Brosque steadied the ship excellently towards the end.
Paulo Retre - N/A
