yeah great to hear, the best bit in they did not get an away goal so hopefully they can try and shut it down on the return leg.

Was there a resolution as to where they might play the final? Surely having it at Hindmarsh Stadium would keep a lot of casual fans away? Are there any other options?

Isaac, apparently there is no other suitable venues in adelaide so they will have to play it at hindmarsh. Apart from that they didn't want to give up the home ground advantage and as a result were willing to lose something like $2 million in possible revenue to play it at hindmarsh. But they are thinking of setting up the screen at adelaide oval (i think) with a live feed of the game.

We really need a central location like fed square for these sorts of events - it comes up every time there is a big tv event and nothing happens after that - i guess that is Adelaide in a nutshell

Fantastic game and result. Assuming Adelaide makes it through to the ACL final the game will be at Hindmarsh. I would rather that than at Adelaide Oval or Footy Park where the atmosphere is just not the same which was proven when United played a one off game vs Sydney at Adelaide Oval. How much difference a good stadium in the city center would make..

just a tought... is there any chance of temp stands being put up. I know it would be difficult and expensive to build a second tier but how about on the corners where currently there are only walkways?

As I understand it, the final will be played in Japan. A bit like the UEFA championships where the finals location is set before the teams playing in it are decided.

I think you may be right after all. Had a look at the AFC website and there is two games scheduled for the final. I was relying on a workmates comments. Best to check the source first, eh?

Yes the asian champions league is played over two legs a home and away. i disagree with this format and believe the game should be decided in one game just like the European champions league.

This is a huge boost for Australian soccer though. If ADEL make it into the final they will play in the world club championship against the likes of manchester united in December. This tournament will be held in JAPAN!

The final is played over 2 legs on November 5 and 12.

Assuming we make it, the 2nd leg will be played here.

surely they can put up temporary stands again like they did for the Olympics.

Unbelieveable. What an atmosphere at the game, surely anyone who was only a casual fan of ADL should now be a fan and the fans should now be worshippers.

Im so happy that there will be a members priority period if we make the final cause the match will sellout within probably a day or two.

Match will be played at Hindmarsh, no point in changing for more fans. Neither of the other stadiums are suitable, neither would provide the same atmosphere(mainly because of the proximity to the pitch), ADL has not lost a match at homme in 11 matches and only conceded one goal in ACL matches there.
Im buzzing today, this will be good for not only soccer in Adelaide, but soccer in australia. Aswell as Adleaide as a city. We could be marketed t the whole world soon.

Only if we don't get smashed by Manchester United, but first don't let Bunyodkor score three goals in the second leg.

Uh oh... what with the poor state of the NBL, you might soon have to change this forum to www.uprightscrossbarandnet.com.au, Isaac...
