1. VAR grants Wellington a penalty against the Wanderers after a contentious handball and Ulises Dávila converts minutes later to give Wellington the lead #WELvWSW
Teams should start walking off the field after rubbish var decisions #WELvWSW

Three weeks in a row WSW have been on the opposite end of a VAR decision now, you have to feel for Babbel #WELvWSW

Terrible, terrible call from the VAR. Defender's hand was already in motion and there was no way he could have got his hand out of the way #WELvWSW
— Robert Cox (@Chosen_Chaos) December 7, 2019
Where was his hand supposed to be in that situation? In normal times that would've been waved away. #VAR #WELvWSW #ALeague

Nabbout is on 🔥🔥 #WUNvMVC
— Janelle Hayhurst (@JanelleHayhurst) December 8, 2019
That is just vintage Nabbout - Kruse brings the trickery, Nabbout brings the raw strength and power. Cracking goal! #WUNvMVC #mvfc

⚽️ GOAL, @wufcofficial 0-1 @gomvfc (14 mins)

NABBOUT!!! He picks the ball up on the halfway line, driving forward to unleash a belter from the edge of the box for his 2️⃣nd of the season#WUNvMVC #ALeague pic.twitter.com/ZskxcxBvFc
4. James Troisi scores his first goal for Adelaide United to give them the lead with less than 10 minutes remaining #ADLvNEW
TROISI SCORES! The star is having a golden summer as he passes Jackson with ease and slides it past Glenn Moss for the go-ahead goal 2-1 #ADLvNEW
— The Football Sack (@TheFootballSack) December 8, 2019
.@NewcastleJetsFC will be kicking themselves after that Troisi goal. They haven’t converted a lot of great attacks and then they switch off like that. #ADLvNEW #ALeague
— Paul Marcuccitti (@P_M_73) December 8, 2019
83' | GOAL!!!! @JamesTroisi scores his first goal for #AUFC after chasing down the throw-in before dribbling forward and sliding his composed finish beyond Moss. 2-1. #ADLvNEW pic.twitter.com/Jc9tGbD9pa

5. Fornaroli scores the first goal for the match and against his old club #MCYvPER
Fornaroli’s body control, being able to get himself between defenders and the ball and hold his ground, has always been a huge strength. But he just bullied three bigger defenders to that dropping ball lmao what a weird goal #MCYVPER
— Evan Morgan Grahame (@Evan_M_G) December 6, 2019
Just had to be, Bruno Fornaroli #MCYvPER
— Josh Gersbach (@JoshGersbach) December 6, 2019
Fornaroli’s goal & celebration at AAMI Park this evening perfectly summed up the quality of player he is, the quality of person he is, & the disappointment in seeing him sit on the sidelines last season. ⭐️ #MCYvPER
— Sam Reynolds (@samreynolds_) December 6, 2019
It had to happen.. Bruno Fornaroli returns to haunt old club Melbourne City, scoring all-important opener as @PerthGloryFC cruise to 3-0 win. Fornaroli has great affection for City, got tremendous ovation as he left the field and hugging ex-teammates/coaches afterwards #MCYvPER
