A-League R12 review: Victory talk up title chances, Aloisi pays price, dominant Roar Melbourne Victory midfielder Kosta Barbarouses tells Sunday Shootout that Melbourne Victory can win the A-League title. Guilherme Finkler of the Victory celebrates his dramatic late goal. MELBOURNE Victory claim they've got the character of A-League champions, while John Aloisi pays the price. Read our Round 12 A-League review. Kwame Yeboah, Gui Finkler and Shinji Ono all feature in Fox Sports' top ten A-League goals of 2013. Fresh from seeing his side fight back to force a draw with powerhouses Western Sydney Wanderers, Kosta Barbarouses says Melbourne Victory has the self-belief to win the A-League championship this season. The attacker was asked on Sunday Shootout whether he could repeat his exploits of 2010-2011, where won the A-League title with Brisbane Roar. Earlier in the season we were 2-0 down against Adelaide United and we came back. This week we showed the same," he said. Western Sydney Wanderers looked set to take all three points against the Victory, before Gui Finkler sent AAMI Park into raptures with a phenomenal last-second free kick. That's Championship winning material. We have shown we never give up. Shootout host and former Socceroo Mark Bosnich was impressed with what he saw from Kevin Muscat's men at AAMI Park, but said the rookie coach could get even more out of his side with more adventurous tactics. "Victory normally play with wingers on their opposite sides, Barbarouses on the left and Connor Pain on the right," he said. You know they're going to cut in. Wanderers knew and they stifled them well. Kevin Muscat needed to swap it over earlier, he did eventually but perhaps he missed a trick. Fellow shootout host Craig Moore reserved his place for the Wanderers, who still picked up a point, despite missing attacking weapons Tomi Juric and Shinji Ono, and having Yousouff Hersi come off the bench. "Wanderers are in a really good position, and to achieve what they did without those three was a great result," he said. Victory do play a fantastic brand of football and we saw two teams who know what they want to achieve this season. Melbourne Heart's 1-0 loss to Wellington Phoenix on Friday night was the final straw for the club's board, sacking coach John Aloisi less than 24 hours later. Melbourne Heart chairman Peter Sidwell has addressed the media to confirm the termination of coach John Aloisi's contract with the struggling A-League club. Moore said the decision didn't surprise him, but there are worrying signs moving forward for the club. We're in a results business. John Aloisi understands how it operates and won't want people to be sorry for him," Moore said. The concern going forward for supporters is what is the future of the club. What is going to change? Something has to change. News Corp football writer David Davutovic says the removal of John Aloisi from the Melbourne Heart coaching position was inevitable after a horror run of results. Bosnich admitted the Heart were in turmoil, but hoped good would come of the situation. Right now, right here, that (sacking Aloisi) was the most decisive action we've seen from their board for some time. 17 games, they didn't have a choice," Bosnich said. They've lost their way and they need to get back on track. They're losing fans by the second. They need to steady the ship. They said they still want to make the finals. That's ambitious and that's a good thing. The players have to bear respobnsilbity and start winning now. Following his dismissal as Melbourne Heart coach, we take a look back at John Aloisi's horror 2013 at the helm of the embattled club. Frank Farina will tell you differently, but Brisbane Roar's dismantling of Sydney FC on Thursday night sent out an emphatic message to their title rivals and re-inforced that Mike Mulvey's side are the competition favourites. The Roar played with flair and showed great composure to come from a goal down to hammer the Sky Blues 5-1, a defeat made more bitter with former Sydney FC star Dimitri Petratos scoring a hat-trick against his old club. The signs are worrying for a Sky Blues outfit who until recently had been cruising. The average age of their starting XI was more than 30, the oldest side they've ever fielded. For the Roar, it's onwards and upwards. Mark Bosnich tells A-League fans to enjoy the game without causing trouble after trouble flared in Melbourne between Wanderers and Victory fans. Melbourne Victory and Western Sydney Wanderers put on a Saturday night show at a rocking AAMI Park. It was billed as the match of round 12, and it didn't disappoint, Gui Finkler's late strike a fitting way to conclude any match. Kosta Barboruses was closest to the action, and he enjoyed the spectacle. "It was a great match to be a part of and just a really good game of football," he told Sunday Shootout. You saw two teams with good structures. It had a bit of everything. Josep Gomabu lit the fuse ahead of Adelaide United's clash with Newcastle - bringing to light his opponents physical style - and it appeared the Jets players were only too happy to stoke the flames. Referee Chris Beath dished out seven yellow cards as the challenges came flying in from all directions in a spicy affair at Coopers Stadium, with Marcelo Carrusca receiving special attention from the Jets. Tahj Minniecon, Carlos Hernandez and Adama Traore made the cut in Mark Bosnich's A-League team of the week for round 12. "We need to protect the players we need to protect the football people," Gombau fumed after seeing his playmaker hobble off injured. Injuries aside, the Reds are on the way up, rising to seventh with their latest win. They're building nicely. They're starting to become familiar with the style that's expected of them," Bosnich said.
