Goals, Clean Sheets, and Drama: Matildas and Socceroos in Action

1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:15,120
Foreign hello

2
00:00:15,620 --> 00:00:18,800
and welcome to the Aussie Football Passport, your one stop pod for updates

3
00:00:19,300 --> 00:00:22,080
on your favourite Aussie men and women who are playing their club careers abroad.

4
00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:26,160
I'm your host Alex and this week we have plenty of club action to cover.

5
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,800
From goal scoring defenders to clean sheets, an update on

6
00:00:30,300 --> 00:00:34,400
the soccero's world ranking and an unfortunate injury to a young Socceroo.

7
00:00:34,900 --> 00:00:38,440
It's all happening. So let's not wait any longer and

8
00:00:38,940 --> 00:00:39,920
get straight into the headlines.

9
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,440
All right? As the transfer window has shut, there isn't much

10
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:53,480
transfer news, but we do have one piece and that is that Sian Fryer

11
00:00:53,980 --> 00:00:57,960
is returning to the Brisbane Raw on loan for the upcoming A League women's

12
00:00:58,460 --> 00:01:02,460
season from her parent club Wolfsburg. Unfortunately, she's had to return

13
00:01:02,540 --> 00:01:06,340
for personal reasons, but it will be a pleasure

14
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,740
to see Sian rejoining the A Leagues women's competition for this

15
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:15,260
season. All right, now let's take a look at some of the other headlines.

16
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,620
And as mentioned earlier in the introduction, the Socceroos have

17
00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,980
actually dropped a place in the FIFA men's world rankings to 25th

18
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,060
place. So that is despite two victories over

19
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:32,280
New Zealand in the recent Soccer Ashes series series. But it's also due

20
00:01:32,780 --> 00:01:36,880
to Ecuador getting a win against Argentina in South American qualification for

21
00:01:37,380 --> 00:01:41,800
the World Cup. But look, let's be honest, if anyone actually knows

22
00:01:42,300 --> 00:01:45,400
how this thing is calculated, please let us know.

23
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,120
Message, email, something like that, send a carrier pigeon

24
00:01:49,620 --> 00:01:53,400
if you like. But yeah, we, we'd absolutely love to know how it's

25
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,160
worked out because we haven't got a clue. Now, Thomas Waddingham.

26
00:01:57,660 --> 00:02:00,920
Unfortunately he suffered a thigh injury in training

27
00:02:01,420 --> 00:02:05,060
for Portsmouth. Injury could see him miss up to 12 weeks.

28
00:02:05,220 --> 00:02:09,060
So a big shame for Thomas. It looked like he was starting to make a

29
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,260
bit of headway into the, you know, getting some regular minutes

30
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,140
there at Portsmouth. So bit of a shame that one. And all the best in

31
00:02:17,640 --> 00:02:20,500
recovery Thomas there now Steph Cutley,

32
00:02:20,740 --> 00:02:24,980
she came 29th in the Ballon d' or feminine voting.

33
00:02:25,780 --> 00:02:29,300
So well done to Steph for, for making the final

34
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,660
list or the top 30 if you like. The top prize was taken

35
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,980
out by Aitana Bonmati for the third time in her career

36
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,220
and she did have a stellar season last year, so congratulations to her.

37
00:02:42,540 --> 00:02:46,500
But that is it for the headlines this week, short and sweet. So let's

38
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:58,630
dive straight into the weekly wrap weekly

39
00:02:59,130 --> 00:03:02,710
wrap time. And let's start with our ladies in the USA where

40
00:03:03,210 --> 00:03:06,590
Courtney vine started and played 57 minutes as a forward for

41
00:03:07,090 --> 00:03:10,710
North Carolina Courage as they scored a last gasp winner to

42
00:03:11,210 --> 00:03:14,950
defeat Orlando Pride 1 nil now speaking of last class

43
00:03:15,350 --> 00:03:19,390
results, Portland Thorns secured a draw in the 86th minute against

44
00:03:19,890 --> 00:03:23,030
San Diego Wave. Mackenzie Arnold played the full game in goal

45
00:03:23,530 --> 00:03:27,030
whilst Caitlin Torpy was an unused sub for the Thorns.

46
00:03:27,510 --> 00:03:31,550
Morgan Aquino played the full game between the posts for DC Power in

47
00:03:32,050 --> 00:03:35,430
the two all draw with Brooklyn fc. That means her side

48
00:03:35,930 --> 00:03:40,030
remains undefeated this season, so well done Morgan. She seems to be playing a big

49
00:03:40,530 --> 00:03:43,190
part in their season there at DC Power.

50
00:03:43,750 --> 00:03:47,390
Now let's head south of the border to Mexico where Emily Gilnick was

51
00:03:47,890 --> 00:03:51,790
a second half substitute for Monterrey as they won 8 nil

52
00:03:52,290 --> 00:03:56,350
against Alianza in the CONCACAF Women's Champions cup in

53
00:03:56,850 --> 00:04:00,450
midweek action. She picked up an assist in that game as

54
00:04:00,530 --> 00:04:03,850
well, so well done to Emily there. She then backed

55
00:04:04,350 --> 00:04:07,890
it up with a substitute appearance on Tuesday

56
00:04:09,090 --> 00:04:12,530
Monday local time. I should say Tuesday local time.

57
00:04:13,030 --> 00:04:16,730
Australian she came on in the 62nd minute for her side

58
00:04:17,230 --> 00:04:20,570
against Pachuca in league action. Unfortunately she

59
00:04:21,070 --> 00:04:24,650
was unable to influence the result as her side went down to

60
00:04:25,150 --> 00:04:29,290
nil in that one. Now let's head to Sweden where AV Luik played 98

61
00:04:29,790 --> 00:04:33,130
minutes in BK Hacken's heartbreaking 21 loss to Atletico

62
00:04:33,630 --> 00:04:37,250
Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League qualifier. The game

63
00:04:37,750 --> 00:04:40,930
went to extra time to decide at which team will progress

64
00:04:41,430 --> 00:04:45,370
to the group stages of the Champions League and unfortunately for AB it

65
00:04:45,870 --> 00:04:50,370
was not BK Hakan. However, her and her teammates dusted

66
00:04:50,870 --> 00:04:54,740
themselves off for league action at the weekend where they bounce back with

67
00:04:54,980 --> 00:04:58,740
a 30 win over Rosengard. Courtney Nevin she

68
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,420
started and played the full game for Malmo in their 4 nil thumping of Algen

69
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,300
Sass. The result sees her side remain in second place only

70
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,300
a point behind first place. There now Jada Wyman

71
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,260
she played the full game in goals for her side AIK as they lost 2:1

72
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:19,660
to Vaccio DFF. Unfortunately there Daniela

73
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:24,240
Galic she started and played the full game for Vizio in their two nil defeat

74
00:05:24,740 --> 00:05:28,360
to Nordkoping. Now Amy Sayer and Remy Siemerson both

75
00:05:28,860 --> 00:05:32,360
started for Christianstad with Amy playing the full 90 minutes and Remy

76
00:05:32,860 --> 00:05:36,120
being substituted in the 89th minute. They both helped

77
00:05:36,620 --> 00:05:39,440
their side to a 21 win over Burma Podana.

78
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,360
The result keeps Christian Stud in the race for a top

79
00:05:43,860 --> 00:05:47,240
three finish which will allow them to potentially compete in Europe for

80
00:05:47,740 --> 00:05:50,960
next season. Of course they may have to go through the qualification route

81
00:05:51,460 --> 00:05:56,260
that we heard earlier with AV Lewick's BK Hacken, but nonetheless

82
00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:00,180
it's better to be in the race than not to be. So let's

83
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:04,180
See how Christian stud season pans out from here. Now let's

84
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:08,020
head to England where Everton came back down to earth this week with

85
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,100
a 21 loss to the London City Lionesses. Claire Wheeler

86
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,660
played the full game for Everton whilst Alana Kennedy played seven

87
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,220
minutes off the bench in that one. Claire Hunt and Charlie Grant both

88
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,540
started for Tottenham as they suffered a heavy defeat to Manchester

89
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,580
City. Hunt played the full game at center back Whilst Grant played

90
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:31,580
63 minutes at right back for Tottenham.

91
00:06:31,900 --> 00:06:35,740
Mary Fowler was not in the Manchester City squad as she continues

92
00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,740
her recovery from her ACL injury. Now in another

93
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,700
Matilda's derby, Chelsea snuck past Leicester City 1

94
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:48,220
nil. Ellie Carpenter started and played the full game for Chelsea whilst Sam

95
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,900
Kerr came off the bench and played 22 minutes in that one.

96
00:06:52,140 --> 00:06:55,960
Emily Van Egbon played the full game in midfield for Leices City.

97
00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,040
Now Dario Vidasic's Brighton and Hove Albion smashed West ham.

98
00:07:00,540 --> 00:07:04,200
West Ham sorry. 41 Charlize Rule started and played

99
00:07:04,700 --> 00:07:08,480
87 minutes at right back for Brighton whilst in opposition Katrina Gorey

100
00:07:08,980 --> 00:07:12,920
played the whole game in midfield. Our ladies at Arsenal

101
00:07:13,420 --> 00:07:16,840
unfortunately were unable to influence the result against Manchester

102
00:07:17,340 --> 00:07:21,320
United as the game ended in a goalless draw. Steph Cutley,

103
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,800
just before it was announced that she came 29th in the

104
00:07:25,300 --> 00:07:28,980
Ballon d' Or Feminine, she played the full game at center back whilst Caitlin Ford

105
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:33,420
started and played 78 minutes on the left wing for the Gunners. Kyra Cooney

106
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:37,300
Cross unfortunately was an unused substitute in that one.

107
00:07:37,860 --> 00:07:41,860
Now over to Germany where Hayley Rasso was a second half

108
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,620
substitute at the weekend, getting 30 minutes as her side Eintracht

109
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,260
Frankfurt lost three nil to Real Madrid. Sorry, that should have been midweek and

110
00:07:50,420 --> 00:07:54,220
unfortunately that knocked them out of contention for the

111
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,740
Champions League group stage. She then backed it up with another

112
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,080
subsidiary appearance coming on in the 69th minute for Eintracht Frankfurt

113
00:08:03,580 --> 00:08:07,120
as they held on to beat Red Bull Leipzig in an absolute nail biter.

114
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,640
That one ended 4:3 to Eintracht Frankfurt.

115
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,760
Jamila Rankin, she started for hoffenheim and played 61

116
00:08:15,260 --> 00:08:19,280
minutes as her side fell to a heartbreaking last minute defeat against Werder

117
00:08:19,780 --> 00:08:24,080
Raymond. 21 was the final score in that one. Anna Margraf,

118
00:08:24,580 --> 00:08:28,600
she played 45 minutes for Carl Zeiss Jenner as they

119
00:08:29,100 --> 00:08:33,720
kept German powerhouse Bayern Munich to a nil all draw there. So congratulations

120
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,320
to Anna and her side in that one. That is no,

121
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:42,200
no mean feat to do that now Alana Murphy,

122
00:08:42,700 --> 00:08:46,520
she came off the bench at halftime for SC sand as they beat Ingo Schlatt

123
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,600
1 nil to remain top of the table after five games.

124
00:08:51,100 --> 00:08:54,790
Well done Alana and her teammates there now Iofi

125
00:08:55,290 --> 00:08:58,990
Colville, she played the full game for her side standardly

126
00:08:59,490 --> 00:09:03,470
age in the nil or draw with Club Bruges in Belgium.

127
00:09:04,030 --> 00:09:07,750
And that is it for the women this week. Now let's

128
00:09:08,250 --> 00:09:11,950
head to the men off to the UK to

129
00:09:12,450 --> 00:09:16,070
the championship where Lewis Miller started for Blackburn Rovers in their match against

130
00:09:16,570 --> 00:09:20,670
Ipswich Town which was abandoned after 80 minutes due to heavy rain

131
00:09:20,830 --> 00:09:22,910
at Ewood park on Sunday.

132
00:09:24,300 --> 00:09:27,500
That game of course will well it will be decided

133
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,980
by the EFL English Football League as to whether it is restarted

134
00:09:32,060 --> 00:09:36,100
from the start or it is played on from

135
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,340
the 80th minute onwards. For those wondering,

136
00:09:39,580 --> 00:09:42,980
Ipswich Town were up one nil in

137
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:47,500
that one from a penalty. Now Adrian Sega he started and played

138
00:09:47,580 --> 00:09:50,740
67 minutes in Portsmouth's two nil loss to Sheffield

139
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,100
Wednesday. He was joined on the pitch by Hayden Matthews in the 52nd minute.

140
00:09:55,430 --> 00:09:59,510
Jacob Farrell was not in the mache squad and of course Thomas Waddingham was ruled

141
00:10:00,010 --> 00:10:03,270
out with injury unfortunately as we covered earlier in the prod.

142
00:10:03,590 --> 00:10:07,630
Sam Silvera he came off the bench in the 42nd minute for Middlesbrough as

143
00:10:08,130 --> 00:10:11,990
they beat West Brom 21 to stay top of the Championship.

144
00:10:12,470 --> 00:10:16,710

145
00:10:16,870 --> 00:10:20,390
Sunday in a one nil loss to Preston North End

146
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,600
in a battle of the former Socceroo playing a current

147
00:10:25,100 --> 00:10:28,480
socceroo, the old guard in the form of Massimo Luongo's Millwall

148
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,240
came out on top against current soccer Nestor Iron Kunda's

149
00:10:32,740 --> 00:10:36,959
Watford 1 nil. Both lads played the full game for their respective

150
00:10:37,459 --> 00:10:40,760
sides in that one. Now let's go down a division to

151
00:10:41,260 --> 00:10:45,040
League one where Joe Gauche played the full game in goal for Port Vale

152
00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:48,326
as they beat Mansfield there. Mansfield Town 2

153
00:10:48,414 --> 00:10:51,730
1. Rafael Borges Rodriguez came

154
00:10:52,230 --> 00:10:56,050
on at halftime but failed to have any influence in Wigan Athletics heavy

155
00:10:56,550 --> 00:11:00,450
loss 41 to Bolton. Now let's head north to Scotland

156
00:11:00,950 --> 00:11:04,330
where Martin Boyle played 82 minutes for Hibbs in a two nil loss

157
00:11:04,490 --> 00:11:08,610
two ranges. Jack Iredale was an unused substitute

158
00:11:09,110 --> 00:11:12,690
in that one. Nicholas Milanovic was an unused substitute

159
00:11:13,190 --> 00:11:16,410
in Aberdeen's one nil defeat to Postolus

160
00:11:16,910 --> 00:11:20,810
Stomatolopoulos. Motherwell in Scottish League cup quarterfinal

161
00:11:21,310 --> 00:11:25,290
action. Stomatilopoulos started and played the full 90 minutes for Marvel

162
00:11:25,790 --> 00:11:29,690
whilst Oscar Priestman was a 76 minute substitute and John

163
00:11:30,190 --> 00:11:34,010
Katrumbas was an 89th minute substitute for Malvoel Cassini.

164
00:11:34,510 --> 00:11:37,210
Yengi was not in the match day squad for Aberdeen.

165
00:11:37,850 --> 00:11:42,170
Keanu bacchus he played 89 minutes for St Mirren as they beat Kilmarnock

166
00:11:42,670 --> 00:11:46,970
53 on penalties to seal their place in the Scottish League cup semifinals.

167
00:11:47,510 --> 00:11:51,230
Game was tied 2 all when backus was substituted

168
00:11:51,730 --> 00:11:55,430
off the pitch and it then went on to penalties. Of course, no extra

169
00:11:55,930 --> 00:11:59,750
time. The game goes straight to penalties after 90

170
00:12:00,250 --> 00:12:03,990
minutes is completed. Now to Scottish Premier League action.

171
00:12:04,310 --> 00:12:07,830
Tetty Yangi played 58 minutes for Livingston in their 32

172
00:12:08,330 --> 00:12:11,990
loss to Dundee. Ryan McGowan was not in the match day squad and

173
00:12:12,490 --> 00:12:15,650
it's probably fair to say he was a big loss for Livingston in that one.

174
00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,240
Now over to Italy where Alessandro Circati played the full 90

175
00:12:20,740 --> 00:12:24,400
minutes as Palmer earned their first clean sheet of the season in a nil all

176
00:12:24,900 --> 00:12:28,600
draw. Away to US Cremonese, of course, home to

177
00:12:29,100 --> 00:12:33,440
Jamie Vardy. Now to Germany where Conor Metcalfe came off the bench in

178
00:12:33,940 --> 00:12:37,560
the 74th minute as St. Pauli went down 2 nil to VfB

179
00:12:38,060 --> 00:12:40,840
Stuttgart in what was their first loss of the season.

180
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,240
Jackson Irvine was not in the matchday squad. No news as

181
00:12:45,740 --> 00:12:49,380
to whether there's any complications with the injury or it was

182
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:53,300
not risked, but we will certainly let you know if there's

183
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,340
any more news on Jackson in next week's pod. Now to

184
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,220
Spain where Matty Ryan was in goal, played the full game

185
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,420
and picked up his first clean sheet for his new side Levante in their

186
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,660
40 win over Girona in La Liga. So great stuff

187
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:14,300
for Mati and a good confidence boost as we head towards the

188
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:18,250
October international window. Now speaking of the October

189
00:13:18,750 --> 00:13:21,850
international window, a man that Tony Popovic should certainly

190
00:13:22,350 --> 00:13:25,570
keep an eye on. He's playing in Portugal. His name is Anthony

191
00:13:26,070 --> 00:13:29,770
Carter and he played 33 minutes for Santa Clara in their 21

192
00:13:30,270 --> 00:13:34,050
win over Alberta. Now to Croatia where Anthony Kalik came off the

193
00:13:34,550 --> 00:13:38,410
bench for Hajic split in the 86th minute as they lost two nil to

194
00:13:38,910 --> 00:13:42,210
Dinamo Zagreb. Frank Karasic was an unused

195
00:13:42,450 --> 00:13:46,220
substitute in that one. Now to the Netherlands

196
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,020
where Jordan boss had some sort of week. He played 78

197
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,700
minutes for his side Feyenoord as they won their fifth game in a

198
00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:57,780
row on Thursday. It was a two nil win over Fortuna Sitard

199
00:13:58,420 --> 00:14:01,740
in the Dutch league. He then backed it up with a full

200
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,940
game against AZ Alkmaar on the weekend. He scored

201
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,740
in the three all draw, so that means Jordan has now

202
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:14,020
scored twice and provided an assist in his last three games for Feyenoord.

203
00:14:14,260 --> 00:14:17,720
He is on absolute fire and let's hope he can

204
00:14:18,220 --> 00:14:21,400
stay fit. He could be a crucial part of

205
00:14:21,900 --> 00:14:24,960
the soccero side heading to Next year's World Cup I believe.

206
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:29,160
Max Ballard he played a full game as Nac Breider

207
00:14:29,660 --> 00:14:32,960
beat aden Rustic Hercules Alamello 2 1.

208
00:14:33,460 --> 00:14:36,400
Khrustic also played the full game for his side.

209
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,200
Now let's head to Austria where Marco Tilio played 79

210
00:14:41,700 --> 00:14:44,960
minutes on Thursday for Rapid Veen in their Austrian cup second

211
00:14:45,460 --> 00:14:49,240
round win over SV Obvaert which

212
00:14:49,740 --> 00:14:53,360
was 2:1. He then came off the bench in the 68th minute for

213
00:14:53,860 --> 00:14:57,640
Rapid Veen within their 1 all draw against Grazer AK.

214
00:14:58,140 --> 00:15:02,320
In league action, Jacob Italiano played the full game for his side Grazer

215
00:15:02,820 --> 00:15:06,000
ak. Now Noah Bottic he came off the bench in the

216
00:15:06,500 --> 00:15:10,880
66th minute for Austria Wien as they beat SV Brade 32

217
00:15:11,690 --> 00:15:14,730
to Denmark where Marcus Yunus played 24

218
00:15:15,230 --> 00:15:19,290
minutes for Bronby in their 1 nil loss to AGF. Our lads

219
00:15:19,790 --> 00:15:23,290
at Randers enjoyed a 30 win over Nordstand.

220
00:15:23,930 --> 00:15:27,810
Paul Ito played the full game in goal whilst mo

221
00:15:28,310 --> 00:15:31,370
Toure played 76 minutes up front in that one.

222
00:15:31,530 --> 00:15:34,970
His brother Moussa Toure was not in the matchday

223
00:15:35,470 --> 00:15:38,930
squad. Now to Norway where Nick D' Agostino came off the bench at

224
00:15:39,430 --> 00:15:43,040
halftime for Viking FK, helping his side to a 1 nil win

225
00:15:43,190 --> 00:15:47,430
over Mold FK. To Serbia where Milos Degenerek

226
00:15:47,930 --> 00:15:51,590
played a full game for his side TSC Baka Topola as they went

227
00:15:52,090 --> 00:15:55,910
down 42 to FK Kurachi. Now to

228
00:15:56,410 --> 00:16:00,110
Northern America, USA and Canada in particular. And let's start with Patrick

229
00:16:00,610 --> 00:16:03,710
Yazbek who played a full game for Nashville in a in

230
00:16:04,210 --> 00:16:08,150
their 31 win over Philadelphia Union in the US Open cup

231
00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:10,550
semifinals in midweek.

232
00:16:11,020 --> 00:16:15,060
Nashville will now go on to face Austin in the final which

233
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,380
takes place on October 1st. So all the best to Patrick and his teammates

234
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,860
in that one. However, his action, his game time was

235
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,740
not up there. He then went on to play the first half

236
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,060
of Nashville in a 32 loss to Orlando City SC in

237
00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,860
league action on the weekend. Now Aidan O' Neill he played 82

238
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,674
minutes in the MLS on Thursday as New York City beat Columbus Crew 3

239
00:16:41,746 --> 00:16:45,430
2. He then came off the bench in the 72nd minute in a

240
00:16:45,930 --> 00:16:49,870
2 nil win over Charlotte FC on the weekend. Archie Goodwin

241
00:16:50,370 --> 00:16:53,830
came off the bench and played 6016 minutes I should say for

242
00:16:53,910 --> 00:16:57,510
Charlotte in that one. Kyrolls he played the

243
00:16:58,010 --> 00:17:02,190
full game for DC United in a 32 loss to Inter Miami

244
00:17:02,690 --> 00:17:04,870
of course of Lionel Messi fame.

245
00:17:05,190 --> 00:17:08,750
Giuseppe Bovalina he came on in the 92nd

246
00:17:09,250 --> 00:17:13,450
minute for the Vancouver White Cups in their Sooner win over Sporting

247
00:17:13,950 --> 00:17:17,610
Kansas City. Now here's an interesting one RFCO. He didn't

248
00:17:18,110 --> 00:17:22,090
feature in Raoul Salt Lake's 41 loss to LAFC in

249
00:17:22,590 --> 00:17:26,810
midweek MLS action. However, he started and played 58

250
00:17:27,310 --> 00:17:30,770
minutes at the weekend where his side suffered the same result against the

251
00:17:31,270 --> 00:17:34,770
same opposition. Deja vu anyone? And if you don't believe me,

252
00:17:35,270 --> 00:17:39,010
head over to Google, check it out. That is a very

253
00:17:39,510 --> 00:17:43,360
interesting one indeed. Now let's wrap it up

254
00:17:43,860 --> 00:17:47,760
in Japan where Jason Guerrier played a full game for Alberto niigata

255
00:17:48,260 --> 00:17:51,200
in a 1 nil loss to Yokohama FC.

256
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,520
That is it for the weekly wrap. Next up is Players

257
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:56,560
of the Week.

258
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,480
All right, Players of the Week time and let's start with

259
00:18:08,980 --> 00:18:12,640
our Women's Player of the Week and it was a bit of a difficult one.

260
00:18:12,940 --> 00:18:16,980
No goal scorers, no assists, but it's about time we paid

261
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,740
our recognition on this podcast to defenders. So this

262
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,820
week it goes to Winona Heatley who played the full game for Roma in

263
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,380
their second leg Champions League qualifier against Sporting Lisbon.

264
00:18:28,460 --> 00:18:32,300
Aside went on to win 2 nil meaning they progressed to the group

265
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,700
stage of the Champions League. So she played at centre back

266
00:18:36,860 --> 00:18:40,500
and helped aside keep a clean sheet and that is exactly why

267
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,380
she got our Women's Player of the Week. So fantastic stuff.

268
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,600
Winner and all the best in the Champions League and the

269
00:18:49,100 --> 00:18:53,240
Serie A which starts in a couple of weeks. Time now

270
00:18:53,740 --> 00:18:55,920
to end Men's Player of the Week and it is a bit of a theme

271
00:18:56,420 --> 00:18:59,880
this week it goes to a defender and his name might have been a

272
00:19:00,380 --> 00:19:03,560
bit conspicuous if you didn't already know some of

273
00:19:04,060 --> 00:19:07,640
the championship results or EFL League cup results

274
00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:11,040
from last week. The man is Cameron

275
00:19:11,540 --> 00:19:15,670
Burgess. He played a full game for Swansea City in midweek as

276
00:19:16,170 --> 00:19:19,830
they played Nottingham Forest in the EFL cup and the big centre back

277
00:19:20,330 --> 00:19:23,990
scored a brace knocking out Ange Postecoglou's side from the tournament.

278
00:19:24,310 --> 00:19:26,390
So wonderful stuff from Cameron.

279
00:19:26,870 --> 00:19:30,550
Unfortunately we do have to end it on a

280
00:19:31,050 --> 00:19:34,190
bit of a sad note for Cameron because he did play another full game on

281
00:19:34,690 --> 00:19:38,750
the weekend for Swansea City but they did go down 1 nil

282
00:19:39,250 --> 00:19:42,950
to Birmingham City. But just to bring the mood back up, we would

283
00:19:43,450 --> 00:19:46,690
absolutely, absolutely love to see Cam do that in green and gold.

284
00:19:46,770 --> 00:19:50,810
Scoring some goals from set pieces could add

285
00:19:51,310 --> 00:19:54,530
a little bit more threat since we are missing Harry Sutar at the moment.

286
00:19:54,930 --> 00:19:58,450
Anyway, that's it for another week of the Aussie football passport.

287

show to being released on Wednesday mornings.

293
00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,260
Now, this will allow us to, I guess,

294
00:20:28,060 --> 00:20:32,940
report on all the players that play on Monday overseas

295
00:20:33,100 --> 00:20:36,500

the full wrap of midweek and weekend action on the pod. So let

00:20:49,340 --> 00:20:51,800
and I'll catch you in the next episode. Goodbye for now.
