The Twittersphere spun at full speed on Sunday afternoon when Perth Glory played out an enthralling 1-1 draw with Western Sydney Wanderers at nib Stadium.
While neither side claimed the three points, the action on the field had members and fans reaching for their smartphones to share their views with us on social media. We collated our favourites following our first match!
On Glory’s Performance
Watching @PerthGloryFC playing out from the back in the first half and negating @wswanderersfc high press to get behind their lines was a joy to behold.

Great first half by @PerthGloryFC, playing like a quality side. Can't wait to see the rest of the season unfold. #PERvWSW

@wswanderersfc look way out of their depth against a very decisive and exciting @PerthGloryFC . But chances are at a premium, story of the round tbh. #ALeague #PERvWSW

Bit rusty at times but there is a lot to like about @PerthGloryFC shape, style and pace this year. Fitter, sharper, bolder #GoGlory #OneGlory

Solid first half by Glory. Stronger, fitter and sharper under Poppa and so many big names still missing. A well deserved lead at half time #PERvsWSW
