Glory Ends Two-Year Away Win Drought
Perth Glory’s 3-1 victory over Western Sydney on Friday night marked a significant moment for the team for several reasons. Most notably, Stephen Peters’ squad finally broke their away game losing streak that had lasted since 2023.
“A drought-breaking win for Perth Glory,” said Network 10 commentator Ben Homer as referee Isabella Mossin blew the full-time whistle.
“Their first away win in almost two years. A match which kicked off an hour and 15 minutes late.”
The delay was due to lightning and storms, but ultimately Perth Glory secured a well-deserved road victory, allowing them to start building momentum for the season ahead.
“Now they can begin to build some momentum this season.”
Another highlight was Gabby Hollar scoring his first goal since January, adding to the importance of the win for Perth Glory.
