GUI Finkler's dramatic injury time goal at Etihad Stadium has knocked Sydney FC out of the A-League finals and advances Melbourne Victory into the semis.

With just over two minutes left in extra time, the Brazilian calmly side-footed Adama Traore's lofted cross to shatter Sydney FC hearts.

Veteran Archie Thompson opened the scoring in the 20th minute after James Troisi teed him up, but it was a familiar foe who drew Sydney level less than 15 minutes later.

Former Melbourne defender Seb Ryall turned in Ali Abbas's cross for his second goal against his old employers this season.

The second half had plenty of chances - moreso for Sydney FC - but Nathan Coe's superb work between the sticks kept Frank Farina's men at bay.

The contest looked to be headed for 30 minutes of extra time until a totally unmarked Finkler punished the Sky Blues' tired defence.

More to come...
