Melbourne Victory–Seoul was level at the break and finished 3–0, which makes the second half worth a closer look than the scoreline alone. Melbourne took 22 shots, but 13 were blocked; that sounds like territory with plenty of bodies in the way, not a stream of clean finishes. The first goal changed the state of the match, then a substitute scored the second. Anyone who watched it: did Melbourne find a new route through, or did the same pressure finally pay off?
The provisional match record has Guillermo May opening the scoring, Clarismario scoring after coming on, and Jordi Valadon adding the third. Seoul had eight shots and two on target. Those totals tell us where the game ended, but the timing of the chances matters if we want to understand the swing.
