Brisbane Roar have defeated the Western Sydney Wanderers in the A-League grand final 2-1 at Lang Park.

The Wanderers scored first but Besart Berisha's goal five minutes before full time kept Brisbane's dream alive.

Extra time was called and substitute Henrique de Andrade Silva proved to be the man of the moment, with a thumping finish in the box.

It has taken just one year of transition, but the Brisbane Roar has a third A-League championship under its belt, making them the most successful team in A-League history.

It was heartbreak again for the Wanderers, who now have two losing grand finals in as many years of their existence as a club.
