A-League Mens 25/26 - Round 19

It was a derby and after the Jets 6 nil win last season and Mariners 3-2 win in the opening match of the season it was always going to be hard fought.The Jets did drop off in the second half and this Mariners team was smelling blood .Natta was great while Donachie and Tapp were steadfast for the Mariners.Ngor's pace enabled him to get behind the Novocastrians' defence on several occasions and he nearly set up a goal for Lavalle who couldn't quite stretch enough to get a foot to his wicked pass.A draw was a fair result.
I still think there was a bobble over Lavale's foot.
 
Have the Jets lost their attacking spark in the last couple of games? They didn't create many chances in this game I thought CCM defended quite well but the Jets didn't look as smooth they normally looked for most of the season.

However the disallowed goal looked a bit harsh, I understand the context but still.

I think people are underestimating the Mariners at the moment. They have found some good form recently. They have picked up 12 points from the last 6 games with zero losses. That's second only to the Jets. Their position on the table is also a bit misleading as they have a game in hand.
