MELBOURNE CITY RATINGS

Lydia Williams - 6

A few pretty dicey moments this afternoon, very strange for a goalkeeper that hasn't conceded in the W-League for as long as she has.

Rebekah Stott - 8

Brilliant defensive performance, living up to her calls mid week that City had to step up the dominance. Led from the back with aplomb.

Emma Checker - 8

Similarly composed, combative: general all around excellence from the former Adelaide skipper.

Lauren Barnes - 8.5

Sensational, especially in her ability to cut past opponents and bomb forward in the appropriate moments.

Ellie Carpenter - 8.5

Withdrawn early, which we can assume was because she'd effectively already won the match. One of the best on the park for the 55-odd minutes we were graced with her presence.

Yukari Kinga - 9

She is so close to faultless. Every pass, bang on target. Watch the replays of City's goals throughout this season and more often than not, Kinga will be involved there somewhere.

Aivi Luik - 8.5

She looks really comfortable and despite playing at a slightly slower tempo to many of her teammates, is virtually impossible to dispossess.
