Briefly:
Melbourne Victory wins its first match against Central Coast Mariners with two goals in the second half, scored by Marlies Oostdam and Rebecca Tegg. Here’s to the match against Sydney FC next week — will the derby feel carry over to the women’s teams? (More so now after Sydney won on Melbourne soil in a league fixture for the first time in the men’s game, drawing criticism from the Melbourne captain against his team.)
Sydney FC gave Perth Glory a 4-0 thumping, while Queensland Roar aren’t far behind with their 4-1 win over Adelaide United. In today’s fixture, Newcastle Jets just about managed to see off Canberra United.
