Mariners humble Victory
The standout result of round 14 of the A-League was probably the Central Coast Mariners' mauling of Melbourne Victory 4-nil at home.
This is Victory's worst home defeat and it comes soon after another big defeat at home when the Victory 3-nil at home to Sydney FC.
Another team to lose at home was Adelaide United who lost to Brisbane Roar 2-nil.
Gold Coast went back to winning ways overcoming league leader Sydney FC with a lone strike in the first half.
Elsewhere there was a draw for the Wellington Phoenix against Perth Glory whilst Newcastle Jets won against the North Queensland Fury.
This week I will take a look at the second half ladder which only considers results from the second half of a match.
