It’d be nice if our FA stepped in and made a case for it to be held here for the “spirit of the occasion” type thing. Would be an incredible occasion at gossy and I’m sure the Lebanese teams fans would love and Aussie holiday.
Nek minit:

> Akshually the regulations are that the minimum capacity for an AFC Final is your home ground's seating capacity +1. So the final will be in Melbourne.

We were excellent last night.

Across the park we shone. The Kants are a very good side far better than we face most weeks in the A League.

Not sure how anyone could find an excuse not to be there tbh.......coz you missed a great night.

lots of heros last night . theo gave a salute to the anzas with a trench warfare dual .
not seen since the 80's
dan hall is a class above ,every CB in the A league .he could even start evolving into
something like a south american sweeper eg fernando redondo .
if we take all before us mikael doka will be remembered as the man of that year !
buy of the season .
max in my belief .would seamlessly walk into a championship english side and another year after that
a premier league side .his shooting is now a real weapon . future australian captain

Cup King Di Pizzo. Without him we wouldn’t have got out of the group. Awesome work by the kid.

Real midfield fight. Both teams defended well and controlled the game for periods.

Ed broke it open with his headers and a little bit of mongrel.

First two goals were a little lucky but the ball was not dropping for us all night. How did we not score earlier when they saved off the line.

I wonder if the ref years supply of beer just got cancelled. You forgot how bad these guys are but i can tell you Faz was not getting away with stuff last night so stopped.

Theo wow. Not pretty but fought with everything he had. Amazing effort. However he still needs to learn a few things the ball was sweeping over to him and his head said don’t do step overs don’t do step overs so he confused himself and just sat and waited for the double team to come across.

But considering how much he was hated for laziness and playing around with the ball till everyone got bored he has come a bloody long way. Fair play Theo. And your going to need the extra strength nappysan. 👏🏻

To the Kants. Wow. Gave us everything. Harassing us and there quality on the ball was a joy to watch. To the travelling fans what a great effort you put in.

There was some nasty tackles both ways but overall both sets of players seemed to shake hands and move on.

They were a very tough side and they didn’t deserve to lose 3-0 but the 3rd was just chasing the game. Great game and they played there part over both legs

DiPiz is a great prospect and again showed what he is capable of, consistency will come with time and the lad has a bright future. Glad he stayed as it has been good for his development.

Theo was the only one in the first half giving it back to the kicking Kants and I’m glad he was there as Torres wouldn’t have handled that situation well at all.

I can see the Theo / DiPiz duo filling the hole we need filling. Together they will be just as good. Perhaps they both had good games now knowing the spot is theirs to share.

Shout out to their travelling support, that’s what playing in these Asian comps should be like. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the AFC journey having gone to Bali. Might save up some $$$ for a trip in the ACL next season.

I love being able to celebrate a goal when a goal happens.

I love not having to stress about a Theo high foot being looked out in slow motion and out of context and fear for a red.

And when shit like the Kuol getting taken out by the keeper gets overlooked, I get over it really f**king quick.

The game is better without VAR.
