Brisbane Roar claimed a 2-1 win over Adelaide United to virtually seal the A-League Premier's Plate at Suncorp Stadium on Sunday.
A Besart Berisha brace after 22 and 52 minutes allowed Mike Mulvey's side to open up a 10-point lead at the top of the table with five rounds remaining before the finals series.
Jeronimo Neumann scored a consolation goal at the death to make it 11 matches in a row that Adelaide have found the net.
A late goal from Kenny Cunningham earned Wellington Phoenix a point in a dramatic finale to their 1-1 draw with Perth Glory at Westpac Stadium.
Glory opened the scoring through defender William Gallas in the 34th minute, but Costa Rica striker Cunningham nodded home the equaliser with five minutes remaining.

Garcia does not fear Getafe sack
Getafe coach Luis Garcia admits he would have no complaints if he were to lose his job after 12 league games without a win.
Defeat to rock-bottom Real Betis on Saturday sees Getafe sit a point outside the relegation zone and with no Liga win since November pressure is beginning to build on Garcia.
As they continue to slip down the league table Garcia admitted he would understand if president Angel Torres decided to replace him.
“If the president decides that’s what is best (sacking him) then I won’t have any problems with it,” he said.
“But if I stay I’ll be back in work on Monday, with the same enthusiasm as always.
“If he feels someone else is better to take the team forward then I’ll be professional and accept it, without any problems or bad words.”
The 41-year-old has been in charge at Getafe since 2011, and is out of contract at the end of the current season.
