Roar beats Macarthur with 95th-minute Vidic strike

Justin Vidic scored in the 95th minute to give Brisbane Roar a 2-1 win over Macarthur.

Brisbane Roar beat Macarthur FC 2-1 with Justin Vidic's 95th-minute strike. Sabit Ngor opened the scoring in the 48th minute before Apostolos Stamatelopoulos equalized for Macarthur in the 64th minute.

Vidic shielded the ball from his marker and shot past keeper Alex Robinson to seal it. The match featured a heated moment in the 38th minute when Milorad Stajic grabbed Liam Rose's head after suffering a head injury.

Stajic avoided a red card but was substituted under concussion protocols. Roar are now one of only two unbeaten sides in the A-League Men, sitting third with a game in hand.
