Thunder storms and a significant amount of rain influenced the game, as both teams struggled to construct cohesive passages of play throughout the 90 minutes.
The home team dominated proceedings in the first half and got took the lead just before half time through an impressive Dario Vidosic who lashed in a fierce drive.
That’s all it took for the hosts, who bagged an invaluable three points that could breathe life into their season.

I don’t recall a single clear cut chance created in this match. Every opportunity has come from scraps. #WSWvPER #aleague — Chris Jack (@chrisjackis) November 1, 2015
Nichols + Vidosic make for an exciting and creative midfield, but still we need a prolific striker as the final piece of the puzzle #WSWvPER

Thank goodness the ref was there to make sure that ball was moved 4 centimetres… #WSWvPER https://t.co/1pGMHyb09v — Sportsbet.com.au (@sportsbetcomau) November 1, 2015
Piovaccari. Instead of a marquee goal assassin, WSW got themselves a marquee ass. #WSWvPER

When a player on $750k is unfit, can’t run and getting cramps after 60 minutes… get rid of him.#thief #piovaccariout #WSWvPER — Darko (@darko_music) November 1, 2015
