Subway Socceroos at Home: A-League Men’s 2022/23 Semi-Final 2nd Legs

Three Subway Socceroos were on target for their respective sides in the first leg of their Semi-Final clashes, leaving the ties evenly poised heading into the second legs.

Sydney FC and Melbourne City played out a 1-1 draw at Allianz Stadium, while Adelaide United went down 2-1 at Coopers Stadium to the Central Coast Mariners.

It is all to play for this weekend with a spot in the title decider on the line.

Check out the preview below!

Melbourne City vs Sydney FC

Mathew Leckie scored his first A-League Men's finals goal in 12 years in City's 1-1 stalemate with Andrew Redmayne's Sky Blues.

It was the forward's seventh of the season as his header fired the visitors into the lead.

Jamie MaclarenMarco Tilio and Jordan Bos are expected to feature for Melbourne, as is Aiden O'Neill who did not travel for the clash due to soreness.

In 13 matches at home this season, City are undefeated as they eye a fourth consecutive Grand Final appearance.

Central Coast Mariners vs Adelaide United

Jason Cummings and the Central Coast Mariners will feel confident heading back to Gosford, holding a slender advantage.

The 27-year-old fired his squad into the lead for his 17th goal of the season, beating Reds goalkeeper Joe Gauci, who only moments earlier, produced a spectacular save to deny him.

Craig Goodwin had opened the scoring from the penalty spot inside four minutes for Adelaide United, who would still fancy themselves of overturning the deficit.
