Those groups definately arent as hard as the ones the aussie teams found themselves in last season.

Don't think either team will advance though, melbourne are shite without fred and adelaide are too inconsistent.

MVFC to get absolutely smashed!

have you ever posted a reply with more then 1 line in it?

yes i have! Melbourne is in a tricky group and will have learnt from last season with adelaide and sydney. The ACL is extremely difficult away for one reason because of the crowd. Adelaide will have some trouble but their group quality isn't as high as that of victory's group.

Back in action tonight...

Melbourne take on Gamba Osaka at the Telstra Dome which should be a fantastic match.

Adelaide are away in Vietnam playing some team I can't remember

Kicks off at 7:30pm AEST.

If I didn't have training i'd watch the games on Sopcast

Melbourne score 4 minutes in - Danny Allsopp on the back of poor goalkeeping.

Hows it going now?

2 - 2 in the 53rd minute - absolute cracker of a game.

Open game from the kick off - plenty of space for all players and most players are getting forward and attacking.

Allsopp and Vargas with Melb's goals.

Osaka's first goal was an absolute gem.

Gamba 2 - 0 Melbourne

Adelaide 4 - 1 Bin Dhong

Adelaide are all but through, Melbourne all but out.

Humm, didn't realise there was another thread for this competition. I created one back in January for the group stages, and placed it in the Other Leagues section.

CLICK HERE I was wondering why no one was posting in it.

The Aussie teams are posted about in here and the finals

Results from tonight's games...

Adelaide 1 - 0 Pohang

Chunnam 1 - 1 Melbourne

Adelaide made it through to the Quater Finals and have been drawn against Kashima Antlers, who were Champions last year of the J League.

end of the road? Djite is gone and Burns isn't to far behind.
