Melbourne derby finishes in draw as Guilherme Finkler levels for Victory

Guilherme Finkler scored a second-half equaliser to give Melbourne Victory a 2-2 draw with Melbourne City in their city derby on Saturday.

City's Bruno Fornaroli scored goals nine minutes apart in the first half, in between a strike by Fahid Ben Khalfallah. Finkler's leveler came just after the restart.

The Victory and City are level on 29 points, six behind league leaders Brisbane after 19 rounds, but City hold a five-goal edge on goal difference over their rivals from Victoria's state capital.

Earlier Saturday, goals from Andy Keogh and Chris Harold gave Perth Glory a 2-1 win over Sydney FC. It was Harold's fifth goal in five games.

On Sunday, second-place Western Sydney Wanderers, who trail Brisbane by a point, can move back to the summit with a home win over Wellington. Central Coast host Adelaide in the other match to conclude the 19th round.
