Andy Keogh and Christopher Ikonomidis fired in Perth Glory to the top of the Hyundai A-League ladder after beating Adelaide United 2-0 in Sunday afternoon's Remembrance Round clash.

The Irishman nabbed a poacher's finish midway through the second half to register his fourth goal in the Hyundai A-League games.

Earlier, Keogh and Perth strike partner Joel Chianese had several well-crafted first half opportunities.

Chianese rattled the crossbar following a lovely release from the Dubliner, before Keogh flashed his partner's bouncing cutback high and wide soon after.

Tony Popovic's side was forced into a few moments of last ditch defending throughout the match, but had been broken by the Reds.

It made Keogh's eventual opener a breakthrough moment, with the striker bundling home the scraps after Alex Grant's header was brilliantly palmed away by Paul Izzo.

And the Western Australians made the match safe in the final minute of normal time when Ferreira teed up Ikonomidis to tap into an empty net.
