Perth Glory have fallen to their first defeat of the A-League Women season and let slip a golden opportunity to move equal top of the ladder after losing 1-0 Canberra United at HBF Park.
The previously-winless Canberra were bottom of the table heading into the match, but frustrated a disappointing Perth outfit in the first half before punishing them in the second.
Emily Condon’s 55th minute strike was the first goal Glory have conceded this campaign, and proved the difference between the two sides as Perth produced their worst showing of the season.
