Former Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge saw action with Perth Glory on Saturday.

Sturridge has made his most meaningful contribution of the A-League Men season to help Perth secure a 1-1 draw with Western Sydney at HBF Park.

Sturridge entered Saturday night's match having made just five cameos off the bench for a total of 93 minutes.

But he made the most of his first start of the season, setting up Bruno Fornaroli's 18th-minute strike.

Sturridge, who was playing his first match since tearing his groin on February 23, was subbed off at halftime with Glory leading 1-0.

A low drive from Wanderers substitute Keijiro Ogawa in the 78th minute helped the visitors secure a deserved point.
