Andre Gumprecht accepts he's playing for his future after his late equaliser for Central Coast Mariners against Queensland Roar on Saturday.

The former Lecce midfielder, 34, told the Sydney Morning Herald: "That's correct. Obviously, I was working hard and long for this day. I've been fighting the German way. I proved in the past whenever I was under pressure I was able to deliver.
