Brisbane Roar extended defending champions Adelaide United’s winless start to the season as they earned a 1-1 draw at Coopers Stadium. But at least the Reds picked up just their second point from the opening six rounds thanks to Sergi Guardiola’s equaliser. The Spanish marksman prevented United from slumping to a fifth straight defeat when he headed home 12 minutes from time. Brett Holman had given the visitors the lead on the hour mark, and the point keeps John Aloisi’s side at least temporarily in the top three.
