Adelaide United up 2:1 against Perth Glory at the 40-minute mark. Gave up another easy goal unfortunately.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

Fmd. AU were 2:0 up and now don 2:3 after 82 minutes.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

In typical AU style we receive a penalty 2 minutes later an Mauk misses with a soft kick.

No wonder Delianov is last man standing between the posts - his flapping for Perths second goal was amateur level stuff.

He (Delianov) should have done better but woeful defending overall on all the goals. The last second equalizer to AU will make the result look better but will not hide obvious defensive flaws there all season.

Once again eagleboy our keeper failed to impress. I know he has a very inexperienced defence around him and we were guilty of not recruiting any key defenders to help him deliver a more stable and well run defence but he just looks to be 5 rungs down from Gauci
who was an A+ grade performer in this league He needs to come off his line earlier to reduce angle and put pressure on attackers. If he cannot regain the form pre shoulder we should look at getting Marguish or Izzo in front of the onion bag. Every time a shot is hit I now get the feeling it will be an opposition goal

I love your Crow training reports. Keep the good work up.


but I digress.
He could have done better on the second goal initially.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

Matildas up 2:0 inside the first 4 minutes.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

This is getting ugly. 3:0 after 8 minutes.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

7-0...

Going to have to be a big second half from the Uzbeks

7-0...

Going to have to be a big second half from the Uzbeks

Bloody T20 cricket

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Apparently during half time they've hopped on the team bus and headed straight for the airport

Surely Musa Tore is sacked for these comments. Completely and utterly disgraceful.

All he said was its against his religion and he doesn't support pride round. He also said he also said he had no issue with LGBT people. What comments do you find disgraceful?

Is the AL forcing the Muslim community to participate. He may have been wiser if he approached AU with his concerns.

If he truly had no issue with LQBTIQ people, he wouldn’t have posted it in the first place.

He didn’t need to post it. He chose to post it, and chose to post it days before Pride Game.

His conduct has brought the club into disrepute. He has to be sacked, or at the very least be stood down for the rest of the season.

Might put a dampener on those transfer rumours

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Well it's not like our season was going anywhere...

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Sport, politics and religion not combining well again. I'm shocked.

 

[George Kramer]

So United are 1 point off bottom, it’s criminal what these owners are doing, you can’t keep developing, selling and bringing * all in.

Anyone know what their current crowds are like?

 

[Eagleboy2011]

How popular is this side.

They may actually have a bigger crowd than the biggest AFL crowd ever.

All 30,000 pre-sale tickets to the Matildas match against reigning AFC Women’s Cup champion China PR at Adelaide Oval sold out last week in four hours.
The remainder of the tickets to the 53,500-capacity stadium went on sale at noon on Tuesday and were snapped up in three hours.
