A-League Review: Ninkovic late show settles Big Blue

Milos Ninkovic's deflected injury-time goal secured a 2-1 A-League win for Sydney FC over Melbourne Victory in the Big Blue on Saturday.

Sydney took an early lead when Brandon O'Neill fired home a superb left-footed strike from outside the box to delight the home crowd.

But Victory levelled it up after Kosta Barbarouses collected Keisuke Honda's fine throughball and lifted a delicate finish over Andrew Redmayne.

It looked as though the spoils would be shared until Siem de Jong escaped down the right and picked out Ninkovic, who got his shot away at the second attempt and saw it bobble into the bottom-left corner via a defender.
