A-League Awesomeness

Last night I was treated to one of the best football games I have ever seen. Round two of the A-League season saw the Melbourne Victory (reigning champions) try and recover from their gong-show of a season-opener (which, perhaps purely for the sake of cosmic symmetry, was one of the worst games of football I have ever seen) against an in-form Brisbane Roar. The game ended 3-3 with Melbourne coming back twice from two goals down, with Melbourne's Costa Rican international, Carlos Hernandez, stealing the draw for Melbourne with two fantastic strikes. What made the game truly fantastic, however, was that all the goals (accept the softly-awarded Roar penalty) were top quality. Have a look at this.
