Glory come from behind for away win in Adelaide

ADELAIDE - Tuesday, 19 January 2010

Although cellar-dweller Adelaide United led 2-0 after 53 minutes, it was not enough to hold out a resurgent Perth Glory with their inglorious away record who came from behind to score three goals in the remainder of the mid-week League fixture who took all the points, and now return home to WA face the side immediately above them on the table - Wellington Phoenix, in fifth place.

However, it also signals a sad display of Adelaide ending with nine players in front of their home crowd

This vital win gives them plenty of confidence in front of their home crowd this coming weekend.
