This semi-final now feels like it’s in Adelaide’s hands. A 1-1 draw in Auckland means the sides will face off in Adelaide for a spot in the Grand Final.
It’s a tough place to play at the best of times, and for Auckland, well, they’re down a couple of key men.
Guillermo May will miss out due to an injury, but Sam Cosgrove should step in and get some good minutes under his belt.
Adelaide will be buoyed by the fact that Luka Jovanovic can return to the squad after missing the first leg due to suspension.
This has all the ingredients to be a cagey one based on their recent history and what’s on the line. A 1-0 win either way seems a probable option, but I’m thinking based on Auckland’s recent form, Corica is going to set his team up to take this game into extra-time and beyond.
He won’t want it to get there if possible, but if it does, Auckland give themselves a great chance to see it through.
