Adelaide United 1 Sydney 1: Debutant Le Fondre rescues a point

Sydney began the new A-League campaign with a 1-1 draw against Adelaide United, the 2017-18 premiers rescued by debutant Adam Le Fondre.

Adam Le Fondre made an immediate impact on his A-League debut as Sydney snatched a late equaliser in Friday's 1-1 draw with Adelaide United.

The journeyman striker moved to Sydney in August after his contract with Bolton Wanderers had been terminated, and he has hit the ground running with his new club.

After two goals in as many FFA Cup matches, the 31-year-old marked his A-League bow with a fine 78th-minute finish to cancel out Scott Galloway's opener.
