Melbourne Victory have claimed a gutsy 2-1 win over Sydney FC to seal a second straight A-League Women championship. Like last year, Sydney finished top of the table this season and had home advantage but were pipped by Victory in the game which mattered most.

In front of 5,027 fans for the grand final at Kogarah Oval, Victory withstood a relentless attacking onslaught from Sydney’s frontline trio of Princess Ibini, Cortnee Vine and Remy Siemsen to win the club’s fourth championship.
