What a comeback and what a result from Wellington Phoenix!
 

5923. Largest home crowd in A-League W history for the Phoenix.
1,607 in attendance at ctrl:cyber Pitch for the other A-League Women semi-final second leg game between Melbourne City and Melbourne Victory on Saturday, May 9th.
 
I'll.go to town on my own club that's pretty weak for a derby semi final. Like the club doesn't really care if people attend I'm surprised victory didn't do anything. Both clubs could do better let's be honest.

Did Wellington do anything different to get those people in?

Roar got a huge crowd for the first leg too. City have a lot of fans so I don’t know why they don’t turn up. Fans know what the bonuses of going to Dub games (the atmosphere, the food, the vibes, meeting players, meeting other fans, having a good time, etc).

Melbourne City heading into the A-League Women grand final on Saturday with an unchanged playing list as Danella Butrus is back at full fitness for the three-time Premiers, having recovered from her concussion sustained during the under-20 Women's Asian Cup whilst on international duty with the Young Matildas and subsequently missing both legs of their Dub semi-final against Melbourne Victory. Chinaza Uchendu remains unavailable for Melbourne City as she's serving the fourth and final match of her suspension, along with Kaya Jugovic, Izabella Rako and Keira Sarris, who have not yet returned from China following the Junior Matildas' under-17 Women's Asian Cup campaign. Wellington Phoenix also head into the Dub grand final with an unchanged extended squad from their semi-final second leg win over Brisbane Roar after extra time last week.
