Western Sydney Wanderers 0 Central Coast Mariners 2
Bozza says: I thought Western Sydney Wanderers deserved a point. It was a fantastic game and really sugar-coated with a marvelous atmosphere. The atmosphere at Parramatta Stadium is getting better and better every week. It really makes a massive difference, especially viewing it on television as well. I thought the Wanderers had the better of the first half but the Mariners, being the team that they are, were deadly. Daniel McBreen's first goal was excellent and it was inevitable they would get more chances on the break once the Wanderers were chasing the game. The controversy for me came at the end when the Wanderers should have had a penalty. Mark Bridge was brought down. Both sets of players and coaches can take a lot of credit. I was always thought this game would be tight. It quite simply came down to McBreen taking his chances and the Wanderers not taking theirs. They can't be too disappointed though.

Melbourne Heart 3 d Brisbane Roar 2
Bozza says: Heart showed great fighting qualities in this. Brisbane had the better of the first half but it shows that you can be at your most vulnerable when you are in control. Perth showed that against Sydney on Saturday night as well. People lose concentration when the ball's up the other end of the pitch and you feel as though you are in total control. It only takes one lapse and that's what exactly happened to Brisbane, and they'll rue that. I've got no complaints over David Williams's red card either. It's completely out of character but the referee got it right. Roar didn't deserve to get anything out of this. There is still something missing from Brisbane Roar. Rado (Vidosic) couldn't put his finger on it. Mike Mulvey is struggling to put his finger on it as well.

Perth Glory 2 Sydney FC 2
Bozza says: There has definitely been a difference in Sydney since the arrival of Frank Farina. The fight has returned . It was certainly questionable at the start of the season, and I made my feelings known about that after the Central Coast Mariners game. But they really went at Perth in the second half of this. Perth will be kicking themselves. Goalkeeper Danny Vukovic has been exceptional but made an uncharacteristic mistake here - and it was costly. Sydney should be very happy.

Melbourne Victory 2 d Wellington Phoenix 0
Bozza says: I know Ange (Postecoglou) has been cautious but if you take a look at their squad , they definitely have the firepower to win this championship. They had a little bit of a hiccup against Western Sydney Wanderers and all it took was to watch the second half against Wellington to see how much off colour they were in Sydney. Gui Finkler is a huge loss and i think long term if they are to go and win the title they need to find a replacement. But when you have people likes Rojas, Flores and Thompson, for any team playing against them it's a real worry.

Newcastle 0 drew with Adelaide 0
News Limited says: Eugene Galekovic's shot-stopping brilliance saved Adelaide United from dropping all points in a 0-0 draw with out-of-form Newcastle at Hunter Stadium. The Socceroos gloveman made two stunning blocks either side of half-time - one from Ryan Griffiths and the other from Adam Taggart. Galekovic was content with the point after keeping Taggart scoreless with one of the saves of the season. "He (Taggart) was put through lucky enough I got a foot on it and it went out for a corner," Galekovic said.
