For a biased opinion -- As a Sydney-FC fan, and one that was at the game... to lose was the worst case scenario. But, with still with a shot at the grand final, it wasn't going to be the last blow. But to lose to a goal off a wrongly rewarded penalty, and a goal that was sneaky, and perhaps un-sportsman like feels like your mother just took a half eaten lollipop off you for no good reason.
I would have accepted a well executed and worthy goal with a chin held high - but like the rest of the Sydney crowd, I stood there, stunned, hearing the collective silence of 20,000 fans "jaw drop" and think - WTF just happened? (Rae said as we left). The big screen only just managed to flash the winning goal soar through the posts it happened to fast, that as a sydney supporter I hoped it was only a reply they were screening.
The saddest past was watching Melbourne steal a victory, their supporter bays erupt in glee, while 3 of our best sat injured on the bench.
