Melbourne City have extended their lead to 11-points at the top of the table, seeing off fellow finals contenders Adelaide United 4-1 at AAMI Park.
However, the win came at a cost for City, who lost Andrew Nabbout to a nasty left leg injury inside the opening half – potentially putting his season and a Socceroos recall in jeopardy.
