Adelaide United beat Western Strikers 11-0 in friendly match Bruce Djite scored a double in the big friendly win. ADELAIDE United's evolution under new boss Josep Gombau continued to emerge after the Reds ticked more boxes with a club record score at Coopers Stadium on Monday night. Adelaide hammered FFSA premier league club Western Strikers 11-0. The Reds first half XI - which also had Birkalla triallist Scott Nagel at left back - demonstrated the refreshing new Reds philosophy in patches. Adelaide held a very high defensive line, its midfield led by holder Isaias Sanchez was ultra-mobile and its first half wingers Jeronimo Neumann and Sergio Cirio were lethal. Skipper Eugene Galekovic was acting as a sweeper at the top of the box while stoppers Osama Malik and Antony Golec moved forward at every opportunity while Sanchez was interchanging to hold fort. The pressing game was also evident with Adelaide keen to win the ball back as soon as possible in all areas of the pitch. Western Strikers did offer some resistance but the premier league side allowed the Reds too much time on the ball and paid the price. Cirio scored Adelaide's first goal after seven minutes when he latched onto a fine cross from Jeronimo Neumann. Bruce Djite then smacked a shot against the post two minutes later before Dario Vidosic rattled the crossbar after a neat cutback from Neumann. Strikers Don DeGiglio then forced Galekovic into a save with a 20m effort before Adelaide led 2-0 on the half hour. Strikers defender Daniel LaStella's attempted clearance from a Neumann cross smacked off the post and into the back of the net Adelaide playmaker Marcelo Carrusca threw a scare in preseason camp when he went down screaming after a collision with Ermias Haile The Argentine saw off the rest of the first half but failed to see any action in the second half. But a minute before the half ended Djite fired in Adelaide's third goal with a rasping 18m drive from the edge of the box. Adelaide made seven changes at the break keeper as Paul Izzo, Tarek Elrich, Jordan Elsey, Nigel Boogaard and Nagel completed the defensive five. Jake Barker-Daish, Cam Watson and White City triallist Nikola Mileusnic entered the fray. Mileusnic scored five minutes into the second half when he capitalised on a defensive mix up before Djite scored his second with a neat header three minutes later. Cirio made it 6-0 two minutes later when he chipped the ball into the net after a fast break. The Spanish winger scored his hat-trick on the hour from 8m with a bending shot. AIS forward and Adelaide triallist Mark Ochieng made it 8-0 when he tucked in a rebound from a 10m Mileusnic shot. Another AIS triallist Bright Appiah scored Adelaide's ninth goal after Strikers keeper Takumi Takahashi made a triple save but couldn't block the fourth attempt at goal. Jake Barker-Daish handed Adelaide its 10th goal when he nodded in a neat cross from 6m. Barker-Daish's second goal was a gem when the midfielder hammered a 25m drive into the corner of the net to record Adelaide's 11th goal.
