Adelaide United hoping for strong end to season

Submitted by Andrew Slevison on Thu, 01/28/2010 - 22:25

Adelaide United coach Aurelio Vidmar is hoping his side can finish off a disappointing season in winning fashion.

The Reds have slumped to the bottom of the table this season after finishing runners-up in 2008/09 and although things have clearly not gone to plan, Vidmar hopes the final three matches can provide some sort of happiness around the club.

“We still need to put in three strong performances in the remaining games of the A-League and that’s what we’ve been planning to do,” Vidmar said.

“We’ve had a pretty good week on the track, they’re fresh, enthusiastic and that’s what we expect, a strong performance.

“The pressure is always on because we don’t want to go and fall over, we still need to try and put in a strong performance and I think we’re capable of doing that.”

Adelaide are away to the Wellington Phoenix at Christchurch’s AMI Stadium tomorrow evening – kick-off is at 7:00pm local time (5:00pm AEDT).
