In the 43rd minute Onoforo had a chance in a 1 on 1 with Green but the Mandurah Goalkeeper stood his ground and blocked the shot.

Mandurah’s players frustration on the pitch was evident as they picked up 3 yellow cards before the first half ended.
 
Mandurah City looked a lot stronger in the second half  this led to striker O’Callaghan scoring within 7 minutes forcing Perth SC out of their comfort zone.

Perth responded 7 minutes later when number 15 Antonio Naglieri scored to put the home side back in front.

Mandurah did not quit though as number 8 Andrew Brown equalized once again in the 61st minute with a shot inside the box putting the ball right into the back net.

In the 65th minute frustration was seen once again as number 5 from Mandurah Chris Currie was sent off the field for getting his second yellow card after talking back to the referee.

Mandurah tried their hardest to battle Perth with only 10 men but found themselves failing as Onoforo scored to put the home side in front on the 73rd minute with a simple goal from left side of the box.
