00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:15,840
Foreign welcome

2
00:00:16,340 --> 00:00:19,480
to the Aussie football passport, your one stop pod for updates on your favourite

3
00:00:19,980 --> 00:00:23,520
Aussie men and women who are playing their club careers abroad. I'm your host Alex

4
00:00:24,020 --> 00:00:27,520
and this week we have got plenty of football action to

5
00:00:28,020 --> 00:00:31,560
bring you. Our men and women are doing their thing across the

6
00:00:32,060 --> 00:00:35,740
globe, whether it be in domestic league action, cup action

7
00:00:36,060 --> 00:00:40,700
or continental cup action. We've got you all covered here including

8
00:00:40,860 --> 00:00:45,260
transfers as well and let wait

9
00:00:45,340 --> 00:00:47,420
no longer and get straight into it.

10
00:00:53,900 --> 00:00:57,660
All right, let's start with the news headlines and we've got a few transfers

11
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,690
to get through this week. Let's start with some some of our Matildas.

12
00:01:02,190 --> 00:01:05,770
Alana Murphy has just signed with SC sand in the German

13
00:01:05,930 --> 00:01:11,130
second Division. The midfielder is looks

14
00:01:11,630 --> 00:01:15,490
like it's a good move for Alana there so good luck to her

15
00:01:15,990 --> 00:01:19,130
in Germany. Now Jacinta Galabadarachi.

16
00:01:19,630 --> 00:01:23,970
She has signed for Cesuolo in the Italian top flight as they look to strengthen

17
00:01:24,470 --> 00:01:27,690
their side further. She'll link up with fellow Aussie Jessica Nash

18
00:01:28,190 --> 00:01:31,370
there and it will take our total up to 4

19
00:01:31,870 --> 00:01:35,270
I believe in the Serie A feminine. Now,

20
00:01:35,590 --> 00:01:38,990
speaking of Italy or people with Italian surnames,

21
00:01:39,490 --> 00:01:42,870
Joe Gauchi. He's just signed with EFL Ligue

22
00:01:43,370 --> 00:01:46,830
1 side Port Vale on a season long loan from Premier

23
00:01:47,330 --> 00:01:50,830
League side Aston Villa. So all the best to Joe there and hopefully

24
00:01:51,330 --> 00:01:54,870
he gets plenty of minutes so he can provide some good competition for

25
00:01:55,370 --> 00:01:59,190
Matt Ryan. Now closer to home, 2A league players

26
00:01:59,270 --> 00:02:02,710
are on their way overseas. Lucas Harrington.

27
00:02:03,210 --> 00:02:06,970
He'll depart Brisbane Raw in January as he has signed

28
00:02:07,470 --> 00:02:11,570
for the Colorado Rapids for next year's MLS competition.

29
00:02:11,650 --> 00:02:15,330
So he'll stay at the Raw for the first half of the A League season

30
00:02:15,730 --> 00:02:19,170
and look to win a spot in that Colorado

31
00:02:19,670 --> 00:02:23,650
Rapids side. So well done to Lucas there. Great move. He had a spectacular

32
00:02:24,450 --> 00:02:28,210
A League season. One of the few bright lights in that

33
00:02:28,710 --> 00:02:32,290
Brisbane Raw team that was pretty ordinary last year,

34
00:02:32,790 --> 00:02:36,130
let's be quite honest. Now at the other end of the pitch,

35
00:02:36,270 --> 00:02:39,950
Archie Goodwin. He's finally signed for Charlotte fc

36
00:02:40,190 --> 00:02:43,670
also in the mls. It's believed to be a three and a half year deal

37
00:02:44,170 --> 00:02:48,190
and it's landed Adelaide United a whopping $2 million US

38
00:02:49,230 --> 00:02:52,870
transfer fee. So well done to Archie1 to

39
00:02:53,370 --> 00:02:56,510
keep an eye on and looks to be a good move there.

40
00:02:57,070 --> 00:03:01,590
Now to some other headlines and of course we touched on the Parramatildas

41
00:03:02,090 --> 00:03:05,470
last week. They get their opening game of the tournament,

42
00:03:05,980 --> 00:03:09,580
the Intercontinental cup tournament I should say they played Denmark

43
00:03:09,740 --> 00:03:13,780
and we will bring you the wrap of that in next week's episode

44
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,500
as it will Be on tonight as I'm recording this.

45
00:03:18,060 --> 00:03:22,180
Now let's talk about our under 23 women who are playing

46
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,260
in the Asean Cup. So last time we left you

47
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,020
they were about to face Timor Leste,

48
00:03:29,500 --> 00:03:33,220
which they did and they beat them 9 nil

49
00:03:33,300 --> 00:03:37,140
in the to to progress to the knockout stages.

50
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,140
So that was really good. Six changes were made to the side that defeated

51
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:45,100
the Philippines to one nil. Sorry. Three days earlier there

52
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,900
were braces from Holly Furphy, Alana Janchevsky,

53
00:03:49,380 --> 00:03:52,660
while the other goals were from Grace Johnson, Amelia macris

54
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,100
and Leticia McKenna and Adine Keane.

55
00:03:56,420 --> 00:03:59,860
That is a tongue twister, believe it or not. And there was also an own

56
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,000
goal from Timor Lest there as well. Then went

57
00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:07,600
on to the knockout stages and they beat the host nation

58
00:04:08,100 --> 00:04:10,960
Vietnam 2:1 to book their place in the tournament final.

59
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:16,880
The coach made four changes to the side that beat Timor last and

60
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,880
this time it was Letitia McKenna and Aideen Keane who

61
00:04:21,380 --> 00:04:24,960
scored the goals early on to silence the parochial home crowd

62
00:04:25,460 --> 00:04:28,600
there against the host nation. So well done to

63
00:04:29,100 --> 00:04:32,880
the girls. They now face Myanmar in the final and they'll be hoping for revenge

64
00:04:33,820 --> 00:04:37,060
as that opening game they did lose to

65
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,020
Myanmar in the tournament earlier. So. All right, that is a

66
00:04:41,260 --> 00:04:44,540
quick sharp news headline this week,

67
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,220
but we've got plenty to get through in the weekly wrap in just a second.

68
00:04:57,900 --> 00:05:01,500
All right, weekly wrap time and let's start with our ladies in the

69
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,670
USA where Alana Kennedy, she got full game

70
00:05:06,170 --> 00:05:09,910
for Angel City in their nil or draw against the Utah Royals.

71
00:05:10,410 --> 00:05:13,950
So Alana Kennedy back in that centre back role playing a

72
00:05:14,450 --> 00:05:16,630
crucial part in that clean sheet for her side.

73
00:05:17,510 --> 00:05:21,070
Now there was a Matilda's derby as Portland Thorns played North

74
00:05:21,570 --> 00:05:25,350
Carolina courage. Mackenzie Arnold of course played the full game

75
00:05:25,430 --> 00:05:28,670
in goal and made six saves in another draw.

76
00:05:29,170 --> 00:05:33,550
But this time it was a one all draw there. So well done there.

77
00:05:34,030 --> 00:05:37,630
Caitlin torpy, she played 27 minutes for the Thorns while

78
00:05:38,130 --> 00:05:41,590
Courtney Viner played 16 minutes. Now let's head

79
00:05:42,090 --> 00:05:45,990
to Mexico. And Emily Gilnick, she played the full game for Monterrey

80
00:05:46,490 --> 00:05:49,950
in a comprehensive 4 nil lost to Cruz Azul

81
00:05:50,030 --> 00:05:51,870
in midweek league action.

82
00:05:52,910 --> 00:05:56,550
However, she didn't get any minutes on the weekend as her side

83
00:05:57,050 --> 00:06:01,070
bounced back from that loss with a 31 win against Santos Laguna.

84
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:06,040
Now let's head to Sweden where Christianstad got

85
00:06:06,540 --> 00:06:10,560
a 21 win over FC Rosengard with our Aussies

86
00:06:11,060 --> 00:06:14,480
featuring in that one. Amy sayer, she played 74 minutes and put on an assist

87
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,960
while Remy SEEMSON, she played 88 minutes in

88
00:06:18,460 --> 00:06:22,080
that one. Now there was another Matilda's derby This time in

89
00:06:22,580 --> 00:06:26,640
Sweden of course with Malmo beating AIK 2 nil.

90
00:06:27,140 --> 00:06:31,080
Courtney Nevin played the full game at left back for Malmo whilst Jada

91
00:06:31,580 --> 00:06:35,060
Wyman was between the sticks for a Now let's head

92
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,820
to England where it's pre season friendly time. Tottenham Hotspur

93
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,340
they kicked off their preseason with a nil or draw against Sevilla

94
00:06:44,840 --> 00:06:49,020
in Spain. Charlie Grant, she started the game for spurs whilst

95
00:06:49,099 --> 00:06:52,780
Claire Hunt came off the bench in that one. Hayley Russo did

96
00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:54,860
not travel with the squad,

97
00:06:56,300 --> 00:06:59,580
further fueling the speculation that she will leave

98
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:03,280
the club there. Now Ellie Carpenter, she made her

99
00:07:03,780 --> 00:07:08,000
first appearance for Chelsea as she Featured in a 10 draw with Ajax in

100
00:07:08,500 --> 00:07:11,920
the Netherlands. She played the full game and of course Sam Kerr

101
00:07:12,420 --> 00:07:16,360
did not feature as she continues her recovery from that knee

102
00:07:16,860 --> 00:07:21,240
injury. Now Arsenal, they began their preseason

103
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:25,160
with a three nil win over Eintracht Frankfurt

104
00:07:25,660 --> 00:07:29,360
in a behind closed doors friendly in Germany. Seth Catley,

105
00:07:29,860 --> 00:07:33,140
Caitlin Ford and Kyra Cooney Cross featured in that one.

106
00:07:33,620 --> 00:07:37,420
Now over to Italy and Alex Chidiak's FC

107
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:41,460
Como, they claimed bronze at the Women's Cup.

108
00:07:41,620 --> 00:07:45,460
They defeated Atletico Madrid in the third

109
00:07:45,620 --> 00:07:49,620
place playoff with Chidiac starting in that victory.

110
00:07:50,180 --> 00:07:53,740
All right, now let's head over to our men where Aiden

111
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:58,260
o', Neil, well I should state where we're going first. The USA

112
00:07:58,420 --> 00:08:01,750
to the MLS specifically. And Aiden o', Neill,

113
00:08:02,250 --> 00:08:05,670
he played a full game for New York City as they beat Nashville

114
00:08:06,170 --> 00:08:09,750
to one. He made three tackles in that one

115
00:08:10,250 --> 00:08:14,430
if you were interested. And Patrick Yazbek was

116
00:08:14,930 --> 00:08:17,990
in opposition and played the full game for Nashville.

117
00:08:18,390 --> 00:08:22,150
Now Kyrolls, he played the full game for DC United in a one

118
00:08:22,650 --> 00:08:25,990
all draw with Montreal. So it looks like maybe

119
00:08:26,070 --> 00:08:29,340
DC United are are turning a slight corner. Of course I'd

120
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,140
like to get a win on the boards but they'll have to do

121
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,820
with a draw there. All right, now over to

122
00:08:37,460 --> 00:08:41,460
the UK specifically England and Wales to begin with where

123
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,340
we had some EFL cup action in midweek as

124
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:49,220
well as league action on the weekend. And let's start

125
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,420
with Blackburn's new signing Lewis Miller. He got the full game for

126
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,690
his side in in their EFL cup game against Bradford

127
00:08:58,190 --> 00:09:01,050
City. The game ended 2:1 in Bradford's favor unfortunately.

128
00:09:02,170 --> 00:09:05,930
So they are out of the AFL Cup. He then

129
00:09:06,430 --> 00:09:10,410
backed up with 21 minutes in Blackburn's league game against

130
00:09:10,650 --> 00:09:14,330
Birmingham. Unfortunately they lost to two last gas

131
00:09:14,830 --> 00:09:18,130
goals to burn from Birmingham. I should say in that

132
00:09:18,630 --> 00:09:22,240
one it was two one. All right now Cameron Burgess,

133
00:09:22,740 --> 00:09:25,920
he had a pretty productive week.

134
00:09:26,420 --> 00:09:30,320
He got two full games, the first of which was a 31 win for his

135
00:09:30,820 --> 00:09:34,200
side Swansea over Crawley Town in the EFL Cup. He then backed

136
00:09:34,700 --> 00:09:38,560
it up with, as I said, another full game. This time he helped his side

137
00:09:39,060 --> 00:09:42,440
to a clean sheet over Sheffield United, who were promotion hopefuls,

138
00:09:42,940 --> 00:09:46,960
of course. Actually played in the promotion playoff against Sunderland to

139
00:09:47,460 --> 00:09:50,960
win promotion to the Premier League last year. So that is a

140
00:09:51,460 --> 00:09:55,740
very good win for Swansea. Now, wingman Nestery

141
00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,020
Iron Kunda. He played the full game for watford in their 21 loss

142
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:04,340
to Norwich in the EFL Cup. He then backed it up with 56 minutes

143
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,112
and provided an assist for his side as they beat QPR2

144
00:10:08,248 --> 00:10:11,740
1 in the Aussie Derby. So let's cover

145
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:16,100
our QPR boys. First of all, they played a

146
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:20,260
midweek game in the EFL cup, going down three two to Plymouth Argyle

147
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,280
in another Aussie Derby. There's going to be a few of them throughout this season,

148
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:27,280
so make sure you. Well,

149
00:10:27,780 --> 00:10:31,800
I'll cover you for all of them for sure. Anyway, back to

150
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,320
where we were. Daniel Benny played the full game in the game

151
00:10:36,820 --> 00:10:40,199
against Plymouth Argyle and scored whilst Jalen Pearman

152
00:10:40,699 --> 00:10:44,360
played 85 minutes. Keely Adamson unfortunately didn't feature in

153
00:10:44,860 --> 00:10:48,840
either game for QPR whilst on the winning side, Caleb Watts

154
00:10:49,340 --> 00:10:53,140
played 33 minutes from the bench. Whilst we're on,

155
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,300
Caleb, he played 56 minutes for Plymouth on the weekend in

156
00:10:57,540 --> 00:11:01,620
League One action as they lost 32 to Lincoln

157
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,460
City there. All right. Now let's

158
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,980
go to Portsmouth where we've got heaps of Aussies. Hayden Matthews and Jacob Farrell

159
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,380
both played full games for portsmouth in their 21 loss to Reading in

160
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,700
the EFL Cup. Adrian Segaa came off the bench and played

161
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,520
21 minutes and got an assistant for his side's goal there

162
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:26,320
whilst Thomas Waddingham played 60 minutes in

163
00:11:26,820 --> 00:11:30,040
that game. Then onto the weekend where they

164
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:34,520
returned to championship action or league action if you like.

165
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,880
Unfortunately, it was the same scoreline and the same result. This time

166
00:11:39,380 --> 00:11:42,080
they went down to Norwich 2 1. Thomas Waddingham,

167
00:11:42,580 --> 00:11:47,160
he came on in the 70th minute for that game whilst

168
00:11:47,660 --> 00:11:51,400
Hayden Matthews was on the bench but got no minutes and Jacob Farrell was

169
00:11:51,900 --> 00:11:53,860
not day squad unfortunately.

170
00:11:54,980 --> 00:11:58,780
Now to Derby county where Callum Eldar got a full game

171
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:03,060
in their 43 win over West Brom in the EFL cup

172
00:12:03,300 --> 00:12:06,540
and then backed it up at the weekend as

173
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,580
his side unfortunately went down into a bit of a goal a thon. This time

174
00:12:10,900 --> 00:12:14,220
they played Coventry and the result was 5:3.

175
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,020
But Callum did get the goal. So well done there.

176
00:12:18,100 --> 00:12:21,780
So speaking of Coventry, we have Rafael Borges

177
00:12:22,020 --> 00:12:25,520
Rodriguez, he came off the bench in the

178
00:12:26,020 --> 00:12:29,720
89th minute in his side's win over Derby. Going back to

179
00:12:30,220 --> 00:12:34,280
midweek EFL cup action. He got 74 minutes for his side Coventry

180
00:12:34,780 --> 00:12:38,880
as they beat Luton Town 1 nil. Now to Millsborough

181
00:12:39,380 --> 00:12:42,640
where we've got a couple more Aussies. And Tom Glover, he got

182
00:12:43,140 --> 00:12:46,440
the full game between the sticks as Borrow unfortunately

183
00:12:46,940 --> 00:12:50,280
went down 4 nil to Doncaster in AFL Cup.

184
00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:55,280
And then at the weekend Middlesbrough beat Millwall

185
00:12:55,780 --> 00:13:00,080
30 in yet another Australian derby in the championship

186
00:13:00,580 --> 00:13:04,200
this time. So Sam Silvera played 90 minutes

187
00:13:04,700 --> 00:13:08,640
before being substituted for Borrow whilst Maslongo came on

188
00:13:09,140 --> 00:13:12,680
in the 79th minute for Millwall. Tom Glover was on the

189
00:13:13,180 --> 00:13:16,880
bench for Borough in that one. Now going back to

190
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,100
midweek action for Millwall.

191
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,260
Mass Luongo, he got the full game as his side Millwall

192
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,660
beat Newport county one nil. All right now dropping

193
00:13:29,900 --> 00:13:33,260
down to the under 21s.

194
00:13:34,700 --> 00:13:38,660
Garen Qual got 56 minutes for Newcastle's under

195
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,220
21 side in their National League cup game against Gateshead.

196
00:13:43,020 --> 00:13:45,740
They beat them four three in that one.

197
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,280
Now down to League One action. And Jake Holman

198
00:13:50,780 --> 00:13:54,840
got 26 minutes for Walsall in their nil or draw with Stoke

199
00:13:55,340 --> 00:13:59,200
City. Now let's stay on the British Isles and head

200
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:02,720
north to Scotland where Hibbs had two games

201
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,720
this week. They had Europa Conference league

202
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,320
qualification. They played Partisan Belgrade.

203
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,120
Martin Boyle played 90 minutes of his sides 32

204
00:14:15,620 --> 00:14:17,680
extra time loss in that one. John,

205
00:14:18,700 --> 00:14:22,460
he got the full 120 minutes in that

206
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,940
one. Then Martin Boyle backed it up on the weekend in an

207
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:31,300
Australian derby. Can you, can you believe it? Another Australian derby. That's just

208
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,940
everywhere. He got 62 minutes in Hibbs

209
00:14:35,180 --> 00:14:38,660
2 nil win over Livingston and provided the assist for

210
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,860
Hibbs first goal there. John Iredale played the full game for Hibbs

211
00:14:43,180 --> 00:14:46,540
in opposition. Ryan McGowan played the full game for Libby

212
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:50,480
while Tetiyangi came on in the 85th minute in

213
00:14:50,980 --> 00:14:54,360
that one. Now talking about going back to

214
00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,080
conference League qualifications. Zach Sapsford he played the first

215
00:14:58,580 --> 00:15:02,000
half and then went off with an injury whilst playing for his side

216
00:15:02,500 --> 00:15:07,040
at Dundee United in their two all draw with Rapid Veen. His coach stated

217
00:15:07,540 --> 00:15:10,880
that it is an ankle ligament injury that will keep him out of

218
00:15:11,380 --> 00:15:15,040
action for two to four weeks. So rest up Zach and hope

219
00:15:15,540 --> 00:15:18,560
to see you back on the pitch soon. Aberdeen.

220
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,680
Well they beat Greenock Morton 3 nil where we had

221
00:15:23,180 --> 00:15:26,760
our Aussies link up for the second goal. Nicholas Milanovic

222
00:15:27,260 --> 00:15:30,720
provided. This is for Kasuni Yangi's first goal for his new club

223
00:15:31,220 --> 00:15:35,320
Aberdeen. There Yengi played the full game Whilst Milanovic played

224
00:15:35,820 --> 00:15:39,280
60 minutes and that game I should mention is in the Scottish

225
00:15:39,780 --> 00:15:42,760
League cup so Aberdeen will progress to the next stage now.

226
00:15:43,950 --> 00:15:47,150
Now staying with Scottish League cup action, Keanu Backus

227
00:15:47,650 --> 00:15:50,750
played 83 minutes for St Murren as they beat

228
00:15:51,250 --> 00:15:54,510
Hart on in a penalty shootout I should say.

229
00:15:54,990 --> 00:15:57,950
In opposition, Cameron Devlin played the full game.

230
00:15:58,910 --> 00:16:02,830
Now Apostolos Damatilopoulos he got 117

231
00:16:03,330 --> 00:16:06,870
minutes from Otherwell in their 1 nil extra time victory over

232
00:16:07,370 --> 00:16:11,320
Kilmarnock there. Now let's head to warmer

233
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:15,080
climbs in Croatia where Fran Karachic

234
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:19,240
he was involved and played the full game including

235
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,240
extra time and actually got the only goal for Hajic

236
00:16:23,740 --> 00:16:27,600
split in their 31 loss to Dinamo Tirana in Conference League

237
00:16:28,100 --> 00:16:31,640
qualification. Unfortunate result means Hajic have

238
00:16:32,140 --> 00:16:35,800
been knocked out of the tournament. So sad news but

239
00:16:37,220 --> 00:16:39,140
you know the football world doesn't stop.

240
00:16:39,940 --> 00:16:43,740
Karasic backed it up with a full game in his sides

241
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,620
3 nil win over Slavin Belopo in the Croatian

242
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:52,060
league. Now his Aussie teammate Anthony KALIK he played 58 minutes

243
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:56,300
in that Conference League qualifier but did not get any game

244
00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,180
time in the Croatian league game on the weekend.

245
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,040
He was on the bench, just didn't get off the bench in that one.

246
00:17:04,550 --> 00:17:08,070
Now let's head to the Netherlands where Jordan Boss he played the full game

247
00:17:08,570 --> 00:17:12,310
for Feyenoords in their 52 loss to Fenerbahce which

248
00:17:12,810 --> 00:17:16,230
means they have been knocked out of the Champions League and will drop down to

249
00:17:16,550 --> 00:17:20,550
Europa League qualification from here. He then backed

250
00:17:21,050 --> 00:17:25,990
it up with 57 minutes in his sides 21 win against Excelsior

251
00:17:26,150 --> 00:17:29,910
in the Dutch league. There. Now staying in the Dutch

252
00:17:30,410 --> 00:17:33,590
league ajan Khrustich played 10 minutes for Heracles

253
00:17:34,090 --> 00:17:38,290
Alamello in their 41 loss to NEC Nugeman

254
00:17:38,930 --> 00:17:42,610
there Max Ballard he got a full game for NAC Breider

255
00:17:43,110 --> 00:17:46,610
in their 21 win against Fortuna Citade there.

256
00:17:47,170 --> 00:17:50,889
Now over to Austria where Noah Bottic got 15 minutes

257
00:17:51,389 --> 00:17:55,090
for Austria Veen in their one all draw with Bannock Ostrava in Conference

258
00:17:55,590 --> 00:17:59,810
League qualification. That results however knocked

259
00:18:00,310 --> 00:18:04,450
them out of the of the competition. So no Euro European

260
00:18:04,690 --> 00:18:08,330
Conference League action for Noel Bottic this

261
00:18:08,830 --> 00:18:12,330
season. At the weekend they returned to Austrian league action and

262
00:18:12,830 --> 00:18:15,890
he was subbed on in the 78th minute of his side's 21 loss to

263
00:18:16,390 --> 00:18:18,210
LASK in there.

264
00:18:19,090 --> 00:18:22,490
Now Jed Drew he continued his hot streak

265
00:18:22,990 --> 00:18:26,290
scoring for Hartberg in their 21 loss to

266
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:30,320
Red Bull Salzburg. He got 75 minutes in

267
00:18:30,820 --> 00:18:34,560
that game. Now Jacob Italiano he got the full game for Grazer

268
00:18:35,060 --> 00:18:39,000
AK in their 1 all draw with WSG Tyrrell now

269
00:18:39,500 --> 00:18:42,840
over to Norway and Nicholas D' Agostino got 13 minutes for

270
00:18:43,340 --> 00:18:46,920
Viking in their 1 all draw with Istanbul Bashir

271
00:18:47,420 --> 00:18:51,520
in Conference league qualification. However that result means Viking

272
00:18:52,020 --> 00:18:55,900
have also been knocked out of the the competition. So unlucky

273
00:18:56,140 --> 00:18:59,620
to our Aussie lads in Conference league qualification this

274
00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:03,740
week. Now down to Denmark where Mohamed Suray was

275
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:08,100
taken off after 12 minutes due to suffering an injury in Randers

276
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:12,620
32 loss to OB in Danish league action. He did provide

277
00:19:12,860 --> 00:19:15,980
the assist whilst he was on the

278
00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:20,460
pitch though. Now in better news Paul Itzo did

279
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:24,220
return from injury for the same side this time

280
00:19:24,380 --> 00:19:28,160
on the weekend against brndby. Unfortunately Randers

281
00:19:28,660 --> 00:19:33,000
lost 2 nil there. Now over to Serbia where Milos Steganek

282
00:19:33,500 --> 00:19:37,960
played the full game for TSC as they lost 31 to OFK

283
00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:42,760
of sorry biograd there now

284
00:19:43,260 --> 00:19:47,800
to Hungary. Daniel arzany he got 13 minutes in Feren Kvaros 21

285
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:51,560
loss to Pushkas in Hungarian league action.

286
00:19:52,570 --> 00:19:57,050
Now to Spain and Alan mobile he got 75 minutes as Castillon

287
00:19:57,130 --> 00:20:01,050
kicked off their second division campaign.

288
00:20:01,450 --> 00:20:05,530
They did go down to Racing Santander

289
00:20:06,030 --> 00:20:09,650
I should say 3:1 in that one. Now to Germany

290
00:20:10,150 --> 00:20:13,850
where Connor Metcalfe came on in second half stoppage time as St

291
00:20:14,350 --> 00:20:18,690
Pauli beat untracked Nonstadt 3:2

292
00:20:19,190 --> 00:20:23,130
on penalties following a nil or draw that was in DFB

293
00:20:23,630 --> 00:20:27,950
Pokhal action or German cup action for us non German

294
00:20:28,450 --> 00:20:31,830
speakers. Now finally on the weekly wrap we go to

295
00:20:32,310 --> 00:20:35,350
one of our favorites here on the podcast, Italy.

296
00:20:35,430 --> 00:20:38,830
Alessandro Ciccati. He played the full game of

297
00:20:39,330 --> 00:20:43,550
Palmer's 2 nil win against Pear on in

298
00:20:44,050 --> 00:20:47,350
in the Coppa Italia so they progress to the next round.

299
00:20:47,830 --> 00:20:51,350
All right, that is it for the weekly wrap. Next up is Players

300
00:20:51,850 --> 00:20:52,030
of the Week.

301
00:21:00,900 --> 00:21:04,500
All right it is players of the week time and look

302
00:21:04,900 --> 00:21:08,540
our ladies trying their best out there but

303
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,460
not much to pick from this week. However, we did have a goal scorer

304
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,140
and her name was Daniela Galich. She scored her

305
00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:20,310
first goal for her new side Vit show in Sweden. It was

306
00:21:20,810 --> 00:21:24,910
an 86 minute equalizer as she managed to salvage a point

307
00:21:24,990 --> 00:21:27,870
for her side in their game against Jugarden.

308
00:21:28,510 --> 00:21:32,070
Galich started the game and played 86 minutes in that

309
00:21:32,570 --> 00:21:34,909
one so well done Daniela. Great effort there.

310
00:21:35,870 --> 00:21:39,710
Now I realized I made a bit of a slip of the tongue with the

311
00:21:40,210 --> 00:21:44,630
men's player of the week earlier. I did mention him unfortunately earlier

312
00:21:45,130 --> 00:21:49,010
in the show but that is life. But it is none other

313
00:21:49,510 --> 00:21:52,850
than a man who were tipping for great things and

314
00:21:53,090 --> 00:21:57,290
quite potentially to be in the September soccero squad Adrian

315
00:21:57,790 --> 00:22:01,250
Sega so he played two games during the week.

316
00:22:01,490 --> 00:22:05,490
He picked up an assist in Portsmouth to one loss to Reading in

317
00:22:05,570 --> 00:22:09,450
the EFL cup action there. He was only on the park for 20 odd minutes

318
00:22:09,950 --> 00:22:13,850
as well, so made an instant impact. You could say he

319
00:22:14,350 --> 00:22:18,290
then continued this sparkling form he's been in of late,

320
00:22:18,610 --> 00:22:22,230
scoring Portsmouth for own goal in that 21 defeat to Norwich

321
00:22:22,730 --> 00:22:26,510
City on in English championship action there.

322
00:22:26,590 --> 00:22:30,230
So well done Adrian. Let's hope Tony

323
00:22:30,730 --> 00:22:34,750
Popovic is watching and he gets picked, as I said, in that soccero squad

324
00:22:35,250 --> 00:22:38,550
in September. All right, well that is it for another week of the

325
00:22:39,050 --> 00:22:42,790
Aussie football passport. I hope you've enjoyed the show. Make sure
