Weren't the Philippines supposed to be one of the better sides?

They were. Under Alen Stanjcic. They qualified for the World Cup and gave a great account of themselves. They’re still one of the better Asian teams, but Stanjcic leaving has hurt them big time.

Scary to think how good Fowler will be in a few more years.

Already playing regularly for Man City. A fantastic place to maximise her potential.

Oh yeah for sure, but she's going to get a lot better. How good is her passing game.

The first coaching casualty of the A-League has fallen after only two rounds!
Reigning premiers Melbourne City have sacked Rado Vidosic. Former Adelaide United and Olyroos coach Aurelio Vidmar will coach the team for the rest of the season. I suspects he’s just keeping the seat warm for Patty Kisnorbo to make his return, he’s stint in Troyes, France has been a disaster and its almost certain he’ll get the sack anytime soon.

4-0 up at halftime against that football powerhouse Bangladesh.

Full time 7-0.
Was good to see a bit of ruthlessness from the Socceroos, one of the criticisms of them is they’re performances against lower ranked teams. Something they need to show they’re addressing ahead of the Asian Cup where unlike the World Cup, they’ll start as heavy favourites in most of their matches.
In the other game of our group, Palestine and Lebanon played out a nil all draw. Two teams with more important things on their minds to be fair.
Next up for Australia, a trip to Kuwait to face Palestine next Wednesday morning.

Bit too close!

Yeah not Australia’s best game but Palestine are a far stronger team than Bangladesh and playing them away was always going to be a bit tricky. Lebanon will be the same kind of game.

Tillies down 1-0 not long into the second half, much stronger team on the park. Looks like a really good crowd.
