Sydney FC have qualified for a sixth consecutive Grand Final after defeating a stubborn Melbourne Victory in the Preliminary Final at Allianz Stadium. Madison Haley’s late goal secured the win 1-0 after the Sky Blues peppered the Victory goal for most of the match. They’ll face Western United in next Sunday’s Grand Final at CommBank Stadium.
