Roar streak club’s worst

-

BELEAGUERE­D Brisbane Roar slumped to their longest stretch without a win in club history after losing 1-0 to Melbourne City at AAMI Park last night.

It has now been eight games since the Roar’s most recent victory – ironically against City.

Since that 2-0 win at Suncorp Stadium on November 24, Brisbane have picked just one point from a possible 24 in what has been a horror season for the three-time A-League champions.

Interim coach Darren Davies has now been in charge for four matches, with last night’s game probably the worst Brisbane performanc­e since he took over from the departed John Aloisi last month.

Apart from a late flurry, in which substitute­s Nick D’Agostino and Henrique, and marquee man Eric Bautheac all had chances, the Roar rarely threatened last night.
