Melbourne's Navy side achieved a significant win, inspired by the presence of Australian football legends and celebrities, with Grimaldi scoring in stoppage time. The result was seen as important for fans and the team's morale, especially after a series of disappointing derby results.

Elsewhere, Wellington Phoenix displayed strong form, dominating their match even after conceding an early second-half equalizer to the Mariners. Sydney FC, however, missed the chance to secure top spot, with their coach citing a lackluster performance. Craig Goodwin stood out for his decisive goal against Perth Glory.

Melbourne Victory edge City 1-0 in Christmas Derby at AAMI Park

This was a victory inspired by Australian football royalty. It was beautiful to see them actually in the changing room after the match. Ange and Muskie and some Hollywood celebrities as well, which is fantastic. The Navy side of Melbourne now with renewed optimism around their season. Grimaldi strikes and he's done it in the first minute of stoppage time. When it's a day like that, the result is really important because one, your fans are due for one. Two, we haven't had a good success rate in the last few derbies and we're aware of that. And three, it's sending everyone home with a beautiful Christmas and hopefully our fans enjoy Christmas off the back of that. MacArthur awaits a City side who has little time to find some polish after 59% of possession and little to show for it. Get ourselves ready, let's see who can get up. I know it's a quick turnaround but we've done that before. Craig Goodwin will be hoping Tony Popovich was watching after putting Perth glory to the sword. Goodwin, he's done it. Pin point Craig Goodwin. That's what Goody is capable of doing. So we expect him to be a player that can deliver that sort of shots from outside the box. Everyone knows how good his left foot is. Ufuktale was clearly expecting more when Sydney FC failed to secure top spot on the road to Newcastle. Probably lethargic I think from the start to the end. I think that's something we definitely need to look at. The Phoenix were anything but lethargic in Wellington today. Despite an early second half equaliser from the Mariners, it was all one way traffic from there. Josh McLean, 10 News.
