Melbourne Heart's winless start to the A-League season continued on Saturday as John Aloisi's men were beaten by city rivals Melbourne Victory.
Victory secured a comfortable 3-1 win at AAMI Park, with all four goals coming after Heart defender Patrick Kisnorbo had been shown a straight red card.
Kisnorbo was sent off on 21 minutes following a two-footed lunge on Connor Pain.
Victory made their numerical advantage count late in the first half when Mitch Nichols opened the scoring with a low drive from 14 yards.
James Troisi doubled Victory's lead on the hour mark, before Nichols struck again moments later to put the result beyond doubt.
Nick Kalmar netted an 82nd-minute consolation goal for Heart, but a comeback was never on the cards.
Heart remain bottom of the table with just four points from 11 games.
