Queensland Roar may have won the Minor Premiership but they can't beat Canberra United.
They lost at home earlier in the year to United and should have lost tonight.
Ashleigh Sykes was brought down in the second half with United leading 1-0. Casey Dumont the six
foot Queensland keeper should have been carded but in keeping with the overall quality of W-League
refereeing she stayed on the park and saved the subsequent Ellie Brush penalty.
Russ Gibbs called the game on 2XX, and it was a great call. I listened, unable to get to the game,
but the excitement of the the United win, the chanting of the crowd and goals goals goals made for
great radio.
For those 1152 lucky enough to see "the best W-League game this season" I suspect they
will be back next week for the Queensland game.

Canberra United thumped the Central Coast Mariners 3-0 in Sydney today. With Sydney losing to
bottom place Perth and Melbourne losing to table topping Queensland, Canberra moved into joint
second place, albeit for a short time with Newcastle expected to thump Adelaide tomorrow.
And next week United are at home to Melbourne Victory who are one place above; we could be set up
for a home Semi if United do the unthinkable and win at home and the Jets lose to Queensland.

Canberra and Sydney Draw Level
Canberra United extended their unbeaten streak to four games but could only managed another 1-1
draw at home this time against Sydney FC in a thrilling and physical fixture.
And isn't it great that there is some football on Boxing Day in case we are losing at the cricket
or your favourite ship is last in the exciting Sydney to Hobart boat race.
And of course only 3 more sleeps until Canberra United play again.
And for Christmas I hope you get what you wish for, peace to you all.
