Melbourne Victory substitute Lleyton Brooks struck deep into stoppage time to earn his side an important point in a 1-1 Melbourne Derby draw with Melbourne City at AAMI Park on Sunday afternoon.
Victory were facing the prospect of a club-first wooden spoon as City opened up a one-goal advantage through a Nick Ansell own goal in the 54th minute before Brooks emerged from the bench to restore parity in the 95th minute of play, ensuring his side moved back above Newcastle Jets into 11th spot on the A-League table.
Due to the 7-day extension to the lockdown in Melbourne, Victory’s clash with Melbourne City at AAMI Park on Sunday will be played behind closed doors.
Members and fans can still catch all the action of the final Melbourne Derby of the A-League 2021/22 season on Fox Sports, Kayo and through MyFootball Telstra Live App from 4:00pm.

Share on Twitter Though their ten-man opposition undoubtedly left something to be desired, City was utterly rampant on their way to a 7-0 thrashing of cross-town foes; the 13-0 margin across to the side’s meeting’s in 2021 the largest margin over two games in Australian national league history. Last Saturday's win equalled the highest ever winning margin in A-League history, moved them to outright top of the A-League table, swelled their goal difference to +20 - 13 clear of next best Central Coast and Sydney FC - and, ultimately, led to Grant Brebner’s axing and replacement, for 2021-22, with Tony Popovic.
Matthew Comito 1619180605,1619181706 Jacob Butterfield says the injection of experience into Melbourne Victory's starting 11 played a telling part in his side's 5-4 win over Western Sydney Wanderers at Marvel Stadium on Friday night. Butterfield scored what proved to be the decider in a manic nine-goal thriller, putting Victory 5-1 up in the second half before a late Wanderers charge saw the visiting side move to within one goal by the full-time whistle. The result - notched in interim boss Steve Kean's first game in charge - sent Victory above Newcastle Jets and off the foot of the A-League table. In the fallout from Victory's dismal 7-0 loss to Melbourne City in Matchweek 17, Kean brought three key players back into his starting lineup to face Western Sydney: Rudy Gestede (32), Leigh Broxham (33) and Robbie Kruse (32). The three additions provided experience aplenty to a Victory side often crying out for leadership in recent times.

Matthew Comito 1618879875,1618883819 Brisbane Roar goalkeeper Jamie Young earned Save of Matchweek 17 honours for a quick-thinking stop to keep Western Sydney Wanderers defender Dylan McGowan off the scoresheet. Brisbane won 2-1 at Bankwest Stadium in the first fixture of Matchweek 17, moving to within two points of the Wanderers in sixth place on the A-League table with three games in hand on Carl Robinson's side. It was an important win in the context of Brisbane's season helped by the stunning glove-work of Young, who made the A-League Team of the Week for Matchweek 17 as well as claiming Save of the Week. After taking a 2-1 lead, the Roar held onto that slender advantage to the full-time whistle. But in the 71st minute of play everything could have changed, if not for the quick reflexes of Brisbane's custodian.
