Another clunky effort from the Phoenix across the ditch. It felt like they were on top for long stages of this game, but again, they struggled to piece it all together inside the final third, and were punished for an error at their defensive end. Temple's side pressed with aggression and tempo throughout, winning the ball high up the pitch, amd keeping their opponents pinned inside their own half. When it came to delivering the ball into the area or getting the ball into the middle for a chance on goal, accuracy was sorely lacking though. Brisbane were bang average for much of the first half on the other hand, but gained some inspiration from their 17-year old striker, and should probably have added a second goal late on, striking the woodwork twice. It's another tough result for the Phoenix, and Paul Temple will have to regather his troops as they drop out of the top six.
