Central Coast are leading the A-League Women after beating Canberra United 5-1 at home on Saturday, giving them six points and nine goals from two games. The Mariners scored twice in the first half and three times after the break. Teenager Skye Halmarick opened the scoring in the sixth minute, and Talia Kapetanellis doubled the lead shortly before half-time. The Mariners scored three more in the second half through Te Reremoana Walker, Kapetanellis again, and substitute Alexia Karrys-Stahl, with Sienna Dale scoring a late consolation for Canberra.
The attacking trio of Trimis, Kapetanellis and Halmarick, supported by Danika Matos, proved too much for Canberra, who were playing their first game of the season after an opening-round bye. Kapetanellis told Paramount Plus that 'it all gelled and we didn't stop the whole 90 minutes, it was just so entertaining'.
Elsewhere in the competition, Western Sydney came from behind to beat Brisbane 3-1 at home, while Adelaide United and Perth played out a goalless draw.
