Player of the round - Alessandro Del Piero

The easiest decision out of all of the rounds, the player of the round for round 17 goes to the marquee man Alessandro Del Piero. Not only did he score a career best four goals but his playmaking and passing game took him back to his days at Juventus. The way Sydney played on Saturday was simply world class, maybe Joel Griffiths was right when he said that he is the final piece to the puzzle because his link up play with ADP was superb. Another positive about ADP's display is that his performance would've been broadcast across Italy which means more exposure for our league, maybe not the exposure we want for Wellington Phoenix.

Grazie Ale !.
