Tough one this week with so many outstanding performances. Plenty that were unlucky to miss out.

“There were reported suggestions that discussions broke down due to Muscat not agreeing with Rangers’ “recruitment model” and the restrictions it would place on him.”

Good on Muscat for not just jumping at any chance without getting what he wants.

3 goals in 5 games now for Daniela Galic with her latest for Vitssjo GIK contributing to a 3-2 win in Sweden.

Was she unlucky to not be called up to the latest Matildas squad given her form?

Good win for Hayley Raso’s Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa Cup this morning with a 4-0 win, however the Matildas flyer had had limited opportunities since joining the German club.

Is Raso still the best option for the Matildas on the right?

Great game for Jamilla Rankin this morning including scoring the 3rd goal for Hoffenheim in their 4-1 win over Hamburger moving them up to 3rd in the league.

Rankin had a passing accuracy of 81% among her 74 touches and also had 3 shots on target.

We’re recording a big A-League men’s preview next week and we’d love to hear from fans of all 12 ALM teams.

If this is you or you want to share with someone who is we’d like to know your:

- player(s) to watch
- hopes/fears for the upcoming season
- predictions

Let us know 👇

So as it turns out our U20 World Cup campaign comes to an end due to multiple factors.

1. Failure to take chances v Italy

2. Inability to avoid late goals v Argentina

3. Unable to turn dominance into goals v Cuba

1 plus 2 or 3 would’ve got us to 4 points with a + GD.
