That is all we have time for on Tribe as Arthur Diles manages to get back-to-back wins for Melbourne Victory. I have been Elliot Thompson and thank you for joining me. Stay with us on Tribe for live coverage of Nottingham Forest against Brighton in the Premier League!
Perth Glory started both halves in this one on the front foot. At the start of the second half, Taggart had a shot cleared off the line, Lisolajski came so close with a shot whilst Pennington had a shot from close range go wide. They really should have gone ahead but instead found themselves behind shortly after. Their defence was just far too open allowing the dangerous front four of Victory to take advantage. After the two goals, their heads dropped as they never looked like mounting fightback. That loss leaves them in 12th place, three points off Newcastle Jets having played two games more.
MELBOURNE VICTORY MOVE INTO THE TOP SIX! A second-half masterclass from Melbourne Victory has earned them the three points today. They were having some sustained pressure in the first half without any real threats on Sail's goal. In the second half, they had to deal with a lot of pressure from Glory first of all before Machach started to run the show. He was causing so many problems as he had so much space in midfield. Machach set up the opening goal as his shot on the edge was parried out to Velupillay for a tap-in. Then he started the move for the second as he ran forward before feeding Vergos on the left. His cross on the left was perfect for Santos to head beyond Sail. The game was more or less done after that with Fornaroli coming close off the bench. That win takes Victory up to thrid place, though they are still eight points off Auckland FC at the top.

WHAT A SAVE! Piscopo on the right side sends in a tame cross towards the six-yard box. The ball rolls into the path of Fornaroli who shoots on the turn with his right foot. Sail rushes across his line to get anything on it parrying the ball away.

SAVE! Taggart holds the ball up and finds Anasmo on the left wing. He takes on Rawlins as he runs towards the byline. Anasmo goes inside and out before entering the box. He tries to catch Langerak out at the near post but he is once again there to hold onto the ball.

Arthur Diles has made a double change to see this one out. Valadon is midfield has come off for some defensive cover in Monge. The same has happened for Santos as he has been replaced by defender Traore.
