My mum developed a real complex for always missing goals when she had to leave the room for whatever reason. It ended up also happening when we finally went and watched a game live. Mate of mine missed three out of four City goals at a game, despite being the only sober one among us.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belaguttman Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Positives: We won and I lived long enough to see us keep a clean shoot against Perth and we were pretty good defensively all over the park Bruno, what else can I add, the first 2 goals out of nothing surrounded by defenders. OK the first was ruled off-side but his level of individual skill is a joy to watch A better game from Mooy tonight. No clangers from JVS Â Negatives: The crowd numbers must be a real concern to both City and FFA. I've got no sympathy for FFA over this issue though Bruno's brilliance covered up our lack of other scoring options, Mooy did well but hit the cross bar, Marino had a good shot saved but not a lot else threatened. I hope Chris Beath picked up his purple shirt at the end of the game, he earned it. <rolls eyes>Â The fireworks <rolls eyes> 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dezy94 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 That was magical from Fornaroli! It was a privilege to watch that first goal, he has no right to score considering the defenders swamping him. Sitting centre wing, had a good look around and saw how well attended the active area of the ground was. Made for a great atmosphere, credit to all the boys and goals in the Melburnians! Cannot wait for Friday, I think we can win it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shahanga Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Well for mine we were the best team from kick off and Perth were totally outplayed. Good performance by the whole XI. Obviously the Bruno magic did the trick but I thought of the others Garuccio and Caceres were fantastic in that first half in particular. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murfy1 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 (edited) What a first home final. The team put in a gut-busting effort that supporters can be proud of. And what is there left to say about Fornaoli? Two goals of supreme class to make Melbourne City's first ever home final a solid and deserved win. Â Garuccio and Fitzgerald played solid high intensity games, getting up and down the pitch all night, and their width helped out Fornaroli and gave him a bit more space to show his class. I thought Caceres put in a really solid performance, both in attack and defence (only due to injury did he seemingly get subbed for dynamo Melling). Him playing well really gave us a complete and faultless midfield, with Mooy attacking and ever-reliable, and Malik a shield in front of the back four. And last but not least the team had a strong defence led by Kisnorbo and Wilkinson, with Sorensen a presence behind them. Â Â All up a team performance with magic Bruno's goals making the difference. An unforgettable first home final. Edited April 17, 2016 by Murfy1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted April 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Great match, great atmosphere, great result. Particularly good to see Fitzy and Gooch on the wings and Retre and Clisby at full-back - thought they all stood tall - and also Caceres put in an excellent shift. In fact an all round super team performance - couldn't fault anyone. It was so important to put on a show for the final home match of the season, and I think we won a few hearts of the doubters tonight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingofhearts Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Really, really great performance by the team tonight. Honestly thought we were fucked when franjic went out and also our past performances against perth have been less then stellar. But up against that the boys all went out their and outplayed Perth thoroughly and deserved the win imo. Shout out to to both of our fullbacks tonight. Both Clisby and Retre had hardly played in the past month or so but both were called upon tonight to do a job and they both performed quite solidly. Mooy also got back to usual service today too. No reason we can't beat Adelaide this friday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
