Sydney: Football Federation Australia has congratulated Sydney FC after they created A-League history by being the first club to win back-to-back A-League Premierships.
Sydney FC defeated Perth Glory 3-2 to open an 11-point lead over their nearest rivals, the Newcastle Jets, who only have three matches remaining in the regular season.
In claiming the A-League Premiership, Sydney FC have also guaranteed their place in the 2019 AFC Champions League.
Football Federation Australia CEO David Gallop on Friday congratulated the players, coaching staff and management of Sydney FC for their outstanding achievement.
“Sydney FC have once again shown that they are the dominant team of the A-League,” said Gallop.
“To be the first club to win back-to-back A-League Premierships is an historic achievement.
