After an incredible regular season, the Central Coast Mariners are preparing for a massive semi-final face-off against Adelaide United.
With two legs, a trip to Adelaide, a massive game at Industree Group Stadium and another Drifters Wharf live site, here is all the information.
Two leg semi-final; how does it work?
By qualifying in second place, the Central Coast Mariners skipped the elimination finals and moved straight into the semi’s. Our opponent was to be the highest ranked winner of the two finals matches over the weekend, which turned out to be Adelaide United.Â
This has set up a blockbuster two leg semi-final clash against the Reds, with the winner progressing to the Grand Final. Adelaide will host the first leg of the semi-finals this Saturday night at 7:45pm AEDT, with our boys travelling down to Coopers Stadium.
The Mariners will then host the second leg, which will kick off at 7:45pm on Saturday, May 20th at Industree Group Stadium. The team that progresses through will be the side who scores the most goals in total over the two matches, both home and away.Â
There will be no away goals rule in place, meaning that if the combined scores over the two legs are locked up at the end of the game at Our Paradise, it will go to extra time. From there penalties will follow, ultimately deciding a winner.Â
