Auckland FC conceded a stoppage-time goal to draw 1-1 at the Brisbane Roar.

A little against the run of play, Hiroki Sakai opened the scoring with a goal for Auckland in the 11th minute. Logan Rogerson then hit the bar not long after.

That fired the home side up even more, who continued to dominate the game but looked destined to be left frustrated at the end of the night as they too hit the bar and disappointed with their finishing. However, in the 95th minute Auckland failed to defend a corner, and Brisbane captain Tom Aldred managed to get a shot through a maze of players to score the equaliser.

“It’s probably not fair to suffer a goal in the last second, the boys fight so hard even the way we create chances,” Moreira said afterwards.

“It was not an organised corner, not an organised set piece they had to create some rebound to score. It was really hard to suffer a goal like this.”

Auckland FC are sixth on the table with four points from three games. They host the Wellington Phoenix in the New Zealand derby next weekend.
