Phoenix v Sydney

The result was not what we were looking for but I think we played some pretty good football, dominated long periods and created chances. 3 - 1 sounds a lot worse than it was and the game could have been a lot different if decisions had gone our way. Thought it was interesting that Ricki had a crack at the officiating given he normally blames the team rather than the officials. They missed a lot or let a lot go - we could have had a couple of pens (against Muscat and Ifill) and the hand ball goal by Ryall shouldn't have stood.

Still pretty confident we'll make the play offs but Adelaide this weekend in Chch will be tough - be good to see Rojas get a decent run - good for Bertos to have some competition for his spot.
