Sydney FC v Adelaide United 20 - Sept - 2008Sydney too hot for depleted AdelaideSydney FC continued their undefeated start to the A-League season with a confident 3-0 win over under-strength Adelaide United at the Sydney Football Stadium.The win has continued Sydney's best ever start to an A-League season, now standing at three wins and two draws from the opening five rounds.The result was all but secured after a strike from Terry McFlynn in just the second minute and another goal 35 minutes in from Alex Brosque.But the highlight of a fairly lopsided contest was a 35-metre second-half wonder strike from substitute Brendon Santalab.Santalab's long-range bomb in the 79th minute replicated the A-League goal of the season also scored by the 26-year-old against United at Adelaide Oval in January.Adelaide returned from Japan just 36 hours prior to the game after playing in the Asian Champions League.And their sluggish start proved costly as Sydney raced to a two-goal advantage before United threatened Sydney goalkeeper Clint Bolton.Adelaide coach Aurelio Vidmar fielded just three players from his starting line-up from Wednesday's 1-1 draw against Kashima Antlers.In contrast Sydney coach John Kosmina selected an unchanged line-up from that which battled to a scoreless draw last weekend in Newcastle.20 September 2008 | 18:29 - AAPhttp://theworldgame.sbs.com.au/a-league/sydney-too-hot-for-depleted-adelaide-137342/
