Perth Glory finally breaks a long home losing streak, while Brisbane Roar continues to struggle, facing the potential record for the worst start to an A-League campaign.
Perth Glory finally secured their first A-League Men home win in 329 days, defeating Auckland City. The victory was a much-needed boost for Glory after a disappointing loss to Western United the previous week. Meanwhile, Brisbane Roar, also struggling this season, are tied with the 2018-19 Central Coast Mariners for the worst start to an A-League campaign after 12 games. Their eight consecutive home losses at Lang Park broke the previous record held by the New Zealand Knights.
Both clubs are undergoing rebuilds and face the challenge of avoiding further unwanted history. Coaches Ruben Zadkovich and David Zdrilic have acknowledged the struggles and emphasized the need for long-term solutions. However, the extended period of poor performance is raising concerns among fans. Both clubs face the risk of losing their support base if they fail to show improvement. The impact of these struggles extends beyond the senior teams, affecting academies and youth development within their states. The lack of success could hinder the emergence of future Socceroos players
