Sydney FC overwhelm midfield while Wanderers pin their hopes on set pieces

Western Sydney Wanderers failed to take the bragging rights home in the derby against their rivals Sydney as the teams shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw on Saturday night at ANZ Stadium.

Sydney maintained their undefeated streak in the passionate rivalry against the Wanderers after taking the lead early on courtesy of an early Alex Brosque goal. The Wanderers bounced back in the second half as Alexander Baumjohann scored a from a free-kick - which deflected its way into the back of the net.

Although the Wanderers had nothing to play for in the league, this match was a last meaningful game for their fans in what can only be described as a poor season under the lead of Markus Babbel.
