WESTERN Sydney Wanderers attacker Mark Bridge wants to celebrate his 150th A-League game with a win over Perth Glory at Parramatta Stadium tomorrow.
Bridge, 26, is happy to have reached the milestone but said he was more interested in getting the result for his team.
"I am hoping we win. As long as we win I will be happy," Bridge said.
"They're a good team, Perth, they have some quality players."
The Wanderers are aiming for their seventh win in a row.
Bridge said maintaining possession was a key aspect to the Wanderers' game that needed work.
"I think we turned over a lot in crucial areas in midfield easily (last week)," he said.
"We are on a bit of a roll at the moment and the last couple of weeks we probably haven't been at our best but we still got the results. Once we turn that around it'll get even better."
