Adelaide United has continued Sydney FC's horror start to the season with a 3-1 win at the Sydney Football Stadium tonight.

Sydney FC 1 (Keller 58th)
Adelaide United 3 (Van Dyk 9th, 53th, Leckie 37th)

Stephan Keller's 58th minute goal restored some hope for Sydney but Adelaide was too strong on the night.
