[Music] And so the next chapter begins, staring them down tonight. A Melbourne victory side who’s been through the ringer, suffering grand final heartbreak in back-to- back seasons. Maybe they can take a leaf out of the Rex and book and know there is always the chance to be the savior of the brokenhearted. And Deadpool pool in the house. There is no doubt it is such a special night. I wonder whether that could be Archie Thompson. We saw that in the uh the pregame show in the Australia Cup competition against Olympic Kingsway. Yellow chips driving forward. Santos getting on the outside. Here’s a chance for the Brazilian Santos and a Conquo called into action and Mash couldn’t untangle his feet. Now Treyor from distance victory defense need to be ready and waiting. Mash he’s going in Mash the conquo forced into a sharp save to his left and you cannot go to sleep on Melbourne victory. You cannot go to sleep on the Frenchman. Well this is Zinedine Mash all over isn’t it? Driving towards the edge of the box. Good powerful run. He’s assessing the situation and then says, “Well, it’s my turn to have a crack.” Doson pulls wide away and in. It’s O’ Conor who scores the opening goal for Rexom. And you cannot say the Red Dragons do not deserve it. They have been banging on the victory door. And finally, it’s O’ Connor, an unheralded goalcorer, who gets the account underway in Melbourne. Well, on the Harvey Norman replay, it’s a ball into a dangerous area. I think Jack Duncan was in two minds. Ollie Palmer with the cross, and I think Jack Duncan was thinking maybe collect, but then decides to punch, but it’s straight into the danger area on the edge of the D. And the cross is another good one from Barnett. Challenging for Melbourne. victory. Evans back into the mixer. Mlan angles it wide. Barnett drives it in. There’s the second and it’s the new recruit, the Scotsman Ryan Hardy. What a debut for Rexom. Just after 20 minutes for the Red Dragons and he’s found the back of the net. start to get those understandings back with your teammates. The goal scorer Ian Hardy looking for a second spills back for Evans and it creeps its way under Rascowski and George Evans the Manchester City youth product who only got limited opportunities last year just seven appearances in League One. He gets a goal in Australia and it’s 3-0 to Rex. Well, he almost looked a little embarrassed, didn’t he? It was a great run on the Harvey Norman replay to initiate the play. So, Rexom’s brand new chapter begins with a victory down under. And it was a very dominant second half display against mostly a Melbourne victory youth team. The first half was a tight affair. It was O’ Connor that put Rexom in front. A new recruit Ryan Hardy getting on the board in the second half. So too, George Evans in a 3-nil win for the Welsh outfit here in Melbourne. [Music]

Good job promoting this game A-league no one even fucking new
There was not 37k there. Proves the A league lies about attendance
A – league is League One level and I'm being generous.
How is this shit a feature game fucking championship level teams taking the piss. On the back of some movie stars.
I wonder if anyone gave the Wrexham players an AFL ball or Tim Tam's, which they do when clubs like this come to Australia
I thought july is a winter time in Australia
Shame this game was played after victory sold a third their first team
So A-League is not even good enough against a Top 2 Finish from the English 3rd Division
So who is telling fibs about the crowd figure.. looks 20k not 37k. Did they include giveaway tickets where no one turned up.
Well, if Wrexham can cook victory 3-0, I'm not looking forward to next Tuesday.
Attendance is people who went which was at best 20k
It doesn’t include the free tickets you gave away
Could Wrexham get to the Premier League next year? 🤔
Well if Cardiff and Swansea could do it then why not Wrexham. 🤔 😆
Two goalkeeping errors and Victory playing youth teamers; Nothing to take from this. A full 1st team all match would have been a better measure of each side and also, how an A League team stands-up to a Div1 side. Not Wrexham's' fault – you can only play what's put in front of you.
No offense but Melbourne victory needs a new sponsor your an Australian football team sponsored by Turkish airlines!!
Wrexham midfielders are defiantly gonna be some of the best in the championship
Wrexham went easy on Victory …….
Didn't know there were Wrexham fans in Melbourne
3:00 was that an AFL goal celebration haha.
The commentary of the first goal was wrexham deserved it because they had been banging on the victory door – and yet the first footage of wrexham was that goal🤔 was the commentary overblown or were these highlights missing a lot🤔
losing to Wrexam 3-0 is embarrassing. Goes to show how shit A league is.
haha victory got battered
Well that's embarrassing for the A-League
lol Aussie sokka!
Melbourne Victory not in ths same par as English Champion league.
