The duo’s combined efforts resulted in 55 fantasy points against Melbourne Victory, with Penha scoring 25 points and Garuccio securing 30 points. Their partnership in the final third is blossoming as Penha spoke about their on-field connection post-match.

Adelaide United also made waves with a rare clean sheet in their 1-0 victory over Newcastle Jets, leading to goalkeeper James Delianov and fullback Javi Lopez making the Fantasy Team of the Week. Garuccio and Penha were joined by a strong midfield lineup, securing the highest possible fantasy score. Up front, Kosta Barbarouses, Robert Mak, and Raphael Borges Rodrigues constituted the attacking trio after standout performances.

The resurgence of Socceroos forward Brandon Borrello was on display as he netted his first goal of the season in Brisbane Roar’s win against Perth Glory. Borrello’s recent form has seen him accumulate 26 fantasy points in the last two rounds, making him an enticing prospect for fantasy managers with his affordable price tag.

In the Liberty A-League, Sydney FC’s Cortnee Vine stole the show with her standout performance in a 4-2 victory over Wellington Phoenix. Vine’s two goals and one assist propelled Sydney FC to the top spot on the table, with her 33-point fantasy haul marking her best performance of the season. As the winger hits top form, Sydney FC aims for the Premiers Plate and a strong finish in the finals.

Vine currently leads the fantasy scores from the weekend, with the potential for more action as Wellington Phoenix take on Adelaide United in the upcoming match. Mariana Speckmaier from Phoenix poses a challenge to Vine’s total after her own impressive display with 14 points. The coming matches promise excitement and fierce competition as teams vie for supremacy in the A-Leagues Fantasy realm.
