    Phoenix coach Giancarlo isn't buying into any suggestions they'll gain any advantage from their semifinal opponents in football's A-League being forced into extra time and penalties in their elimination final

    Phoenix coach Giancarlo isn't buying into any suggestions they'll gain any advantage from their semifinal opponents in football's A-League being forced into extra time and penalties in their elimination final


    Melbourne Victory escaped from a dramatic clash with Melbourne City - advancing 3-2 on penalties, despite being reduced to 10-men late in the first half.

    But Italiano says the torrid nature of last night's win for Victory doesn't give Wellington any kind of leg-up ahead of the first leg of their semifinal in Melbourne on Sunday.
