On international duty, Australia have earned their first point at the FIFA Under-17 Women’s World Cup with a one-all draw against Chile. Leyla Hussein started in the front two and was replaced in the seventy-ninth minute, while Sienna Calvanese was an unused substitute. Charlotte Bradshaw scored the second-half equaliser after Chile led at the break. The Junior Matildas now face Spain at two o’clock on Friday morning, Melbourne time, before their final group game against Mexico.
In the men’s game, Juan Mata will return to AAMI Park for Saturday night’s Melbourne Derby. Victory say last season’s Victory Medallist will address supporters before the match and complete a lap of the pitch. The derby against Melbourne City opens Victory’s home league campaign and kicks off at twenty to eight.
