Melbourne City cement A-League Women dynasty with grand final win over Wellington

• City seal domestic double with 3-1 victory over Phoenix at AAMI Park

• Holly McNamara scores a double, Leticia McKenna adds a screamer

Two goals in three minutes from Matildas forward Holly McNamara and a stunning strike by Leticia McKenna have won Melbourne City a record-equalling fifth A-League Women Championship title, defeating newcomers Wellington Phoenix 3-1 in Melbourne on Saturday afternoon.

McNamara, fresh off her Golden Boot win for most goals scored in the regular season, sprung to life late in the first half with a sensational spin-and-strike from outside the box in the 41st minute before scything through Wellington’s defenders to spear her second into the bottom corner two minutes later.
