[@patrickc5448]

11 years old but a moment I'll never forget! Well done Wollongong Wolves!

[@93whizkidd]

You failed maths on school I see

I remember being in London for the 2005 Champions League Final. At half time I told my Liverpool fan housemate "Dont panic yet, I once saw a team come back from this (3-0)". Who would have thought UEFA copied us.

[@JLewwis]

I'm from the gong, bring back the Wolves!

[@MrUbadabubudable]

they're still around u fuq

[@tabutu1]

They even still play at WIN Stadium.

[@zaco21_]

He means bring them back to the top tier of Soccer lol

[@lestentasmercy3129]

wollongong were good, watch them played in Port Moresby for the Oceania Cup. They were Best back then. Should have them on A-League.

[@isakketsakidis4505]

Never 2 late to have teams from other areas . Wollongong is very nice to visit

[@nicklion]

@@isakketsakidis4505 Woolongong didn't have much support and won't be any different today .

[@velekorunoski5997]

I think they will come back either next season or next year, FFA are looking to give them an A-League competing license

[@1969cmp]

I was going for Glory, but this was one of the best GFs ever.

[@firstofall_]

Best game of soccer i've ever seen live even though we lost!

[@HotLoopyPenguin]

Bring back the Wolves in the A-League

[@edwardsmithson7944]

Remember watching it as a kid. Best game I have ever seenm in Australia and up there with the Liverpool Inter Champions Final. if not better imo.

[@sonny1408]

As a Wollongong boy and a diehard Liverpool supporter I have to say, my teams really know how to do a dramatic victory!

[@Binij1]

Never knew Australian soccer could generate such an atmosphere and passionate following

[@remcodevries6615]

I was there at the game back in 2000. It ended in disaster, everyone was in shock. A game never to forget.....

[@HasoVids]

Gotta be one of the best Aussie grand finals ever!

[@shermanator87]

This was proper national sports league stuff, Perth versus Wollongong in a final, you don't get that sorta thing nowadays.

[@moe.syzslak]

Just when legitimate sorrow kicks in for Pogliacomi... dude goes and saves the day for Wollongong

[@baronbayne9899]

I was behind the goal where all goals were scored. Great day until the second half... Still devestated to this day.

[@sma5605]

Holy sh*t! Bring back the NSL

[@muzzaboi101]

absolutely stunning grand final, a real showcase for australian football

[@barrycade9803]

Great crowds and atmosphere by those fans in Perth. Take note Melbourne and Sydney.

[@barrycade9803]

Bring Back The NSL.

[@qr_AR]

Paul Reid, what a player

[@MrPerthglory]

Your missing all the extra time/ golden goal section. Which was nail biting as hell with both sides have a number of chances to win it. This game still hurts 20 years later. Remember the gutted feeling when the wolves won it. Took me several weeks to recover.

[@04tcm]

This video is so awesome that i liked it and im a glory fan haha!

[@07jacklad]

@Dagestani I would prefer the NSL over the A-League anyday mate, It was more about the football and fansin the NSL

[@07jacklad]

@Dagestani just because I think the NSL days are better than now doesnt mean I havent been to the A-League. I have been to every single glory game this year (including celtic) and I am very passionate about the club. I have attended several meetings with glory executives talking about the community and how they can influence a club.

[@5uperMarioBros]

Shame that Wollongong can't afford to field a team in the A-League.

[@MegaasAlexandros]

Wollongong has a strong economy, they need a major sponsor and anything is possible!

[@RegularMatt82]

No surprises James Afkos missed that penalty, he was only in the squad because his Dad was part owner of the club. Awful player.

[@matthewpowell433]

Good old Glory, nothings changed!

[@jerryberry5480]

Glad that Glory is doing well once again

[@gkavner]

I agree, this was such an epic grand final in Australian history and it has less than 1000 views and yet Geelong versus Penrith gets a million and really goes completely un-noticed by pretty much everyone in the world. I often wonder if all Australia's top footballers played soccer how good we'd actually be? Could we have won a world cup by now? I think we would be a power... maybe as good as Netherlands? It's a pity really.

[@MegaasAlexandros]

Geelong VS Penrith ? What code is that in?

[@mdjcsmith]

@@MegaasAlexandros If Geelong played Penrith, I wouldn't be surprised if a million viewed it, just to find out what the hell was going on! 😂😂😂

[@MegaasAlexandros]

@@mdjcsmith 3 years later im still lost as to what he was talking about. cant be NRL we dont play rugby in Victoria, cant ve AFL they dont play footy in NSW - I suppose its one of life's mysteries !!!!!🤔

[@zladatv]

🤝👍⚽️

[@tdpetrucci84]

I was at this game. It's an unreal sensation to have 60000 people brought to complete silence 😬

[@petebroady8993]

GLORY DAYS!!!

[@namesurname8812]

RIP Shovel. Gone way too soon.

[@TheFrancoprincipe]

what an exciting finish.

[@RiskuBusiness]

@iFrosty95 Mr Horsley was my favorite teacher at school. Best bloke.

[@ondinegreen]

Ljubo Milicevic is linked to the underworld and he knows people and they tell him things.

[@matteastwood87]

Only time i ever cried on the bus ride home

[@peterkehoe1984]

R.I.P Mike Cockerill

[@119glory]

@thebeno169 equal best, brisbane v central coast was just as good. interestingly both of those finals are probably the two best of any football code's finals in australia and yet people from league and aussie rules ignore them, sad :(

[@jimjamfc]

glory for the win this sunday

[@superwog991]

My uncles Nick :)

[@biking-viking-claus-andersen]

This would never have happened, had Perth had a half decent goalie.

[@MrPerthglory]

Err, that’s Jason petkovic. One of the best goal keepers glory every had. Was with us for 10 seasons between the sticks.

[@claritaball]

why nobody talks about ofc champions that won wollongong wolves could win perth glory

[@MrChowTheTroll]

I find this and the adelade vs western sydney finals both exciting

[@ARGQ4004]

WTF were they playing at Subiaco Oval for??

[@peterkehoe1984]

Perth Oval (as nib Stadium was known as at the time) was too small. Still is.

[@frankmat]

@NSLWarrior you're joking? The skills in the NSL were horrible
